V1 TEST BLOCK CARBON STEEL

The V1 Test Block is a calibration standard used in ultrasonic testing and is often made from SS 304 stainless steel. This test block is used for calibrating ultrasonic equipment and ensuring the accuracy of measurements when inspecting materials for defects such as cracks, voids, and other structural irregularities. It is designed to provide known flaw sizes and reference points, which allow operators to verify the sensitivity and accuracy of their ultrasonic systems.

Material: Made from SS 304 stainless steel, which provides consistent properties for calibration. Known Flaws and Features: The test block typically includes features such as drilled holes or notches, which help verify the system’s capability to detect specific flaw types. Markings for Traceability: The block is often engraved with important details such as Block Type (V1), Material Type (SS 304), and Serial Number (S/N), ensuring traceability and proper calibration. Used for Calibration: Ensures the ultrasonic testing equipment is correctly calibrated to detect and assess defects in materials accurately.
