Non-Destructive Testing

At Better Aviation Products, Inc., we are committed to ensuring the highest levels of safety and reliability in aviation components. Our in-house Non-Destructive Testing (NDT) services play a crucial role in detecting potential defects without compromising the integrity of the materials. By leveraging advanced NDT techniques, we help maintain the structural integrity of aircraft parts, reducing downtime and enhancing overall performance.
Our NDT Disciplines

We specialize in two key NDT methods, performed in compliance with industry standards to meet the rigorous demands of the aviation sector:

  • Magnetic Particle Testing (ASTM E-1444): This technique uses magnetic fields and iron particles to identify surface and near-surface discontinuities in ferromagnetic materials. It’s ideal for detecting cracks, seams, and other flaws in critical aviation components like engine parts and landing gear.
  • Fluorescent Penetrant Testing (ASTM E-1417): Employing fluorescent dyes that penetrate into surface-breaking defects, this method reveals imperfections under ultraviolet light. It’s highly effective for non-ferrous materials and complex geometries, ensuring thorough inspection of items such as turbine blades and structural fittings.

Our state-of-the-art facilities are equipped with the latest tools and technology to conduct these tests efficiently and accurately.
