Eclipse Scientific has introduced a practical solution for performing crack detection, and monitoring inspection of bolts. The ESBoltScanner allows you to determine the extent of corrosion and to identify cracking without removing the bolt.

The ESBoltScanner inspection system has an upper probe housing which clamps the probe into place and allows it to be adjusted up and down to reach studs above or below the nut surface.  It can also be adjusted back and forth on the bolt head surface to achieve optimum scanning position.  Adjustable spring mounting ensures that the probe contacts the bolt with an even force over the surface, and protective wear-face plates ensure that the probe does not suffer abrasion damage.

The ESBoltScanner can scan bolt sizes ranging from M12 to M105 by selecting from the range of clamping hubs. Each clamping hub is marked with a size that represents the maximum width across flats (WF) of the size of bolt head or nut that will fit the hub. The minimum diameter of bolt or stud is determined by the aperture opening of the clamping hub probe size, which is marked on the top of the rotating scanning head.
