Remote Field Testing Calibration Tube RFT
Eddy
Current Tube Standards. Ready to request a quote for a standard? Here's what we
need... What is the material? (Alloy, OD and Wall) Is NDE supplying
the material or will it be customer supplied? What defects are needed and what
size? (most depths are given in % of tube wall) Is there a specification the
standard needs to comply with? (ASME, etc.) If you have a drawing, or even a simple hand sketch, please send that along as
well. We specialize in custom eddy current tubes, and have years of
experience in machining a huge range of defects. From TWHs and FBHs, OD and ID
grooves, milled flats, and OD and ID thinning bands, to ID FBHs, ID contoured
flats, 120°/180° wearscars, tapered flaws, and
tube-to-tube wear,

Mildly ferromagnetic
material Duplex
steel, SS439, Secure, Monel |
X |
– ECT is used only
for thin tubes (<1.6 mm) with saturation probes.- For thicker walls, it is
better to use RFT or MFL.- IRIS can sometimes be used to confirm the sizing
of defects. |
|
Ferromagnetic
material Carbon steel,
nickel. Typical defects are pitting and corrosion. |
X |
– RFT, MFL, and IRIS
are good, and most of the time complementary. |
|
Boilers |
Carbon steel
tube Typical defects
are pitting, wear, and cracking at the tube sheet. |
X |
– RFT is good for
wear detection and can easily pass the bend.- MFL is good only on straight
boiler tubes without swages.- IRIS is good for wear and pits but has no
sensitivity in the bend. |
Buried Pipes |
Carbon steel or cast
iron pipes Typical defects are
pitting and general corrosion. |
X |
– RFT is the only
effective technique because it does not require cleaning, and it can easily
negotiate elbows. However, sensitivity to pitting is limited. |
