Eddyfi Sharck Butt Weld Probe

Eddyfi Sharck Butt Weld Probe

The innovative design of the patented Sharck™ probes is capable of addressing the inspection needs of several industries relying heavily on carbon steel, such as the onshore and offshore oil and gas, wind power, and structural industries.


Sharck is specifically designed for cracking in carbon steel using  (TECA™) technology. These probes are capable of positioning cracks, measuring their length, and sizing them as deep as 7 mm (0.28 in). This can be achieved without removing paint or protective coatings, unlike more conventional techniques.

Advanced Array Technology

  • Incorporates  (TECA)
  • Fast — Up to 600 mm/s (2 ft/s) depending on the probe model
  • Single-pass detection of longitudinal and transverse cracks
  • Wide coverage
  • High-performance multiplexing for optimal sensitivity
  • Reliable, less operator dependent compared to alternatives
