Description
Ultragel II – High Performance General Purpose Ultrasonic Couplant
Ultragel II is a high-performance ultrasonic couplant gel used for sizing and flaw detection, thickness measurement, flow measurement, and acoustic emission testing. Widely recognized as the industry's most reliable ultrasonic couplant, Ultragel II offers exceptional performance, corrosion protection, and thixotropic properties.
Operating Principle
Ultragel II is formulated to maximize ultrasonic wave transmission, minimizing interference and ensuring accurate readings. Its high viscosity allows adhesion to vertical and elevated surfaces, while its slow drying time extends inspection time.
Benefits
- Adheres well to vertical and elevated surfaces.
- Fills depressions in rough surfaces.
- High corrosion protection and excellent chemical stability.
- Slow drying for longer inspections.
- Excellent transducer lubrication.
- Superior acoustic impedance to reduce surface noise.
- Thixotropic formula to prevent sagging.
- Nuclear-grade compatible and approved for aerospace use.
