Reference Radiograph Sets

Training reference radiographs showing welding flaws, mechanical flaws and processing marks.

Our training reference radiographs are specifically aimed at students who have completed basic training on our RT educational kit and are wanting to further develop their skills of locating and identifying flaws in welds, and the process of radiographic inspection as a whole.

A standard set is made up of radiographs of carbon steel pipe and plate specimens. The flaws are intentionally obvious and generally gross in nature, making them easier for the student to differentiate between and learn about the different flaw types, sizes and general locations.

These sets can be customized to your requirements, such as: plate only, pipe only, light or dense material, etc.

Our sets are recommended for:

  • Training and practice prior to qualifications in:
    – Basic RT flaw detection
    – Basic RT flaw sizing
    – Flaw interpretation
  • Understanding potential film processing problems
  • Gaining an awareness of reporting difficulties

We have a choice of four materials for our educational kits:

  • Carbon steel
  • Stainless steel
  • Aluminium
  • 3D printed resin

Our sets are suitable for the following method:

  • Radiographic testing

Each set  contains:

  • 20 radiographs showing a minimum of 20 flaws, plus a minimum of 6 processing flaws and the following documentation:
  • Each radiograph will be provided with a master report showing flaw type, distance from zero, length, any artefacts, sensitivity and film density
  • 10 copies of an example student report template and flaw radiograph grid showing examples of what each flaw would look like within a radiograph
  • Flaw reference section

We have seven different educational kit types to suit your needs, including:

1 tee and 9 plate specimens carefully selected from the visual, magnetic, penetrant, ultrasonic, and radiographic kits to provide an overview of flaw types and their detection using various non-destructive testing techniques.
