Visual Testing (VT)
Visual Testing (VT) is the most fundamental NDT method and the first line of inspection. Our certified inspectors perform detailed visual examinations of welds, structures, surfaces, and components to detect cracks, corrosion, misalignments, and surface defects. Using tools such as borescopes, magnifiers, and video inspection cameras, we provide thorough visual assessments that comply with AWS, API, and ASNT standards. VT is fast, cost-effective, and requires no special equipment on the workpiece — making it ideal as a first inspection step for any project.
Ultrasonic Testing (UT)
Ultrasonic Testing (UT) uses high-frequency sound waves to detect internal flaws, measure material thickness, and evaluate the integrity of welds, pipes, pressure vessels, and structural components. It is highly accurate and can detect subsurface defects not visible to the naked eye. Our UT inspections are performed using state-of-the-art equipment and follow ASME, AWS, and API standards. UT is widely used in oil & gas, petrochemical, power generation, and structural applications — providing critical data without interrupting operations.
Magnetic Particle Testing (MT)
Magnetic Particle Testing (MT) is used to detect surface and near-surface discontinuities in ferromagnetic materials such as iron, steel, and nickel. It is highly effective for locating cracks, seams, laps, and other linear defects in welds, castings, and forgings. Our MT technicians apply magnetic fields and iron particle suspensions to reveal flaws that would otherwise be undetectable. MT is fast, portable, and widely used in structural steel, pipeline, heavy equipment, and shipbuilding industries to ensure the integrity and safety of critical components.
Liquid Penetrant Testing (PT)
Liquid Penetrant Testing (PT) is used to detect surface-breaking defects in non-porous materials including metals, ceramics, and plastics. A liquid penetrant is applied to the surface and drawn into any cracks or discontinuities by capillary action, then revealed with a developer. PT is ideal for inspecting welds, castings, forgings, and machined components. Our certified PT inspectors follow ASTM and ASNT standards to deliver accurate and reliable results. It is a cost-effective method suitable for both field and shop environments.
Radiographic Testing (RT)
Radiographic Testing (RT) uses X-rays or gamma rays to examine the internal structure of materials and detect flaws such as porosity, cracks, inclusions, and incomplete fusion in welds. It produces a permanent film or digital image (DR) record of the inspection. RT is widely used in pipeline welding, pressure vessel fabrication, casting inspection, and structural steel. Our RT technicians are certified and follow ASME Section V, AWS, and API standards to ensure full compliance and accurate reporting. Both film and digital radiography (DR) methods are available.
Infrared Thermography (IRT) - FLIR T540
Infrared Thermography (IRT) is a non-contact NDT method that uses thermal imaging cameras to detect temperature variations on surfaces. These variations can indicate hidden defects such as delamination, moisture intrusion, insulation failures, electrical hot spots, and structural anomalies. At Hit Service of America, we use the professional-grade FLIR T-540 thermal camera to deliver high-resolution thermographic inspections. This advanced camera features 464x348 IR resolution and Multi-Spectral Dynamic Imaging (MSX), providing exceptional detail and accuracy. IRT is ideal for electrical panels, mechanical equipment, building envelopes, roofing systems, and industrial process monitoring.
Eddy Current Testing (ET)
Eddy Current Testing (ET) is an electromagnetic NDT method used to detect surface and near-surface defects in conductive materials. It is especially useful for inspecting tubing, heat exchangers, aircraft components, and weld inspections on non-ferromagnetic materials. ET is a fast, non-contact method that can detect cracks, corrosion, wall thinning, and coating thickness without removing insulation or coatings in many cases. Our certified ET technicians provide detailed reporting and follow applicable ASTM and ASNT standards.
Rope Access
Rope Access is a highly specialized work-at-height technique that allows our technicians to access difficult or dangerous structures using ropes, harnesses, and rigging equipment — without the need for scaffolding, cranes, or aerial work platforms. Our certified rope access teams perform inspections, maintenance, cleaning, and NDT services on towers, bridges, offshore platforms, tanks, and industrial structures. This method significantly reduces costs and downtime while maintaining the highest safety standards in compliance with IRATA and SPRAT regulations.
Positive Material Identification (PMI)
Positive Material Identification (PMI) is a non-destructive testing method used to verify the chemical composition of metals and alloys. It ensures that materials used in construction, fabrication, and industrial processes meet the required specifications and standards — preventing costly failures caused by incorrect or substandard materials. At Hit Service of America, our PMI inspections are performed using X-Ray Fluorescence (XRF) technology, delivering fast and accurate on-site results without damaging the component. PMI is widely used in oil & gas, petrochemical, power generation, and aerospace industries to verify pipes, fittings, valves, welds, and structural components.
