Test Panel ASME V

The ASME V panel is used for the testing of the penetrants indication sensitivity. Due to the division of the test panel into two parts, it is possible to compare two different penetrants. The test panel is an aluminum block of 80 x 50 x 10 mm, divided by a notch (50 x 2 x 1,5 mm), into two parts. Because of a special thermal treatment the panel surface is provided with a crack pattern, which is different on the front and rear side of the test panel.
