High Performance Ultrasonic Couplant

Soundsafe® is a high-performance, general-purpose ultrasonic couplant designed for a variety of applications including flaw detection, thickness gauging, flow metering, and acoustic emission testing. This medium viscosity gel couplant is recognized for its exceptional performance, outstanding corrosion protection, and thixotropic properties, making it an essential tool for professionals in the industry.

Approved by Pratt & Whitney, Soundsafe meets stringent nuclear grade specifications, ensuring low halogen and sulfur levels for safe use in sensitive environment.

Benefits

  • Wide range of specifications and approvals
  • Excellent surface wetting for fast, even coverage
  • Thixotropic gel that clings well to vertical and overhead surfaces
  • Non-toxic, non-irritating formula
  • Increased acoustic impedance reduces surface noise
  • Highest corrosion inhibition for long-lasting performance
  • Provides superior transducer lubrication
  • Slower drying time allows for extended inspection periods
  • Nuclear grade and aerospace approvals
  • Effective for hydrogen embrittlement testing

INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE

Apply a small amount of couplant to the transducer or inspection area before measurement.

REMOVAL

Remove couplant immediately after inspection before the couplant dries with water rinse or a combination of water rinse and brushing.

A difficult-to-remove film may form if the couplant is allowed to dry before removal. Remove film by pressure washing, wire brushing or immersing the part in water until the couplant rehydrates and can be washed or brushed off.
