PAUT, TOFD and advanced ultrasonic inspection kit, ready for site.
Hire phased array, TOFD and advanced ultrasonic inspection equipment as complete, function-checked kits. Instruments, probes, wedges, scanners, encoders and calibration blocks can be configured around your inspection scope before dispatch.
Advanced NDT hire, configured around the job.
Advanced NDT equipment hire is rarely a one-size-fits-all order. The right setup depends on the technique, material, geometry, access, inspection objective and supporting hardware required. D2 Rentals can supply phased array, TOFD and advanced ultrasonic inspection equipment as complete, function-checked kits, with instruments, probes, wedges, scanners, encoders and calibration blocks matched to your application before dispatch.
Phased Array Ultrasonic Testing (PAUT)
Phased array ultrasonic testing uses electronically controlled probes to steer, sweep and focus ultrasound for detailed weld inspection, corrosion mapping and encoded inspection work.
What it is
PAUT can image weld volumes from a single probe position and build encoded corrosion maps across wider surfaces. It also creates a permanent data record for review and reporting.
What D2 can supply
D2 Rentals can supply PAUT systems including Eddyfi Gekko 32:128, Evident OmniScan X3 32:128, OmniScan X4 16:64 and Eddyfi Mantis 16:64, supported by OmniPC analysis software.
Supporting kit
Available supporting equipment includes probes, wedges and scanners for weld inspection, corrosion mapping, thin-section work and high-temperature applications.
Time-of-Flight Diffraction (TOFD)
TOFD is used to detect and size flaws using tip-diffracted signals, rather than relying on reflected amplitude alone.
What it is
One encoded pass along a weld can support flaw detection, through-wall sizing and a permanent D-scan record. TOFD is well suited to new-construction welds, heavy sections and monitoring known flaws between inspection campaigns.
What D2 can supply
D2 Rentals can supply magnetic-wheeled weld scanners in standard and long-frame configurations, transmit-receive probe pairs from 2 to 15 MHz, flat, curved and high-temperature wedge sets, encoders and calibration blocks.
Combined hire note
TOFD can run on the same instrument fleet as PAUT, allowing combined PAUT and TOFD kits to be hired for compatible inspection setups.
Probes, Wedges & Scanning Hardware
Advanced NDT hire often depends on the supporting hardware as much as the instrument itself. D2 holds a broad range of probes, wedges, scanners, encoders and calibration blocks to suit different materials, geometries and inspection methods.
Available hire support includes
Phased array probes
TOFD probes
Dual linear array corrosion probes
High-temperature probe options
Flat, contoured and high-temperature wedges
Encoders and clamps
Chain scanners
Calibration blocks in carbon steel, stainless steel and duplex
Helpful note
If your exact probe or wedge is not listed, contact D2. The team can help match probes, wedges and scanning hardware to the job.

Common Questions
We hire to professional users. For some equipment or project environments, we may ask for evidence of operator competency or relevant certification before dispatch.
Where the equipment type requires calibration or certification, the relevant document is supplied with the hire.
Yes. Tell us the material, inspection method, access conditions and project requirement, and we will help confirm the most suitable kit.
D2 Rentals can support equipment hire across PAUT, TOFD, conventional UT, MPI, PEC and remote visual inspection, subject to availability.
Yes. Equipment can be dispatched from D2 Rentals in Inverurie, Aberdeenshire, with UK delivery arranged as required.
Where the equipment type requires calibration, it is checked before dispatch and supplied with the relevant certificate. Nothing leaves our centre without a full technical sign-off.
