Coating Defect Identification Label SP0050

Imperfections or problems found during inspections of coating work usually require attention of second or third parties after they have been found.
A second opinion of the paint supplier, witnessing of counter parties or just the attention of a repair crew. In each case it is important the above mentioned spots are easily found back, also when the original inspector is not around anymore.
Large structures such a ships, bridges and steel construction but also poorly lit area’s such as tanks can cause problems in that respect. How, for example, would you describe the exact location of a number of small pinholes, hardly visible (or even non-visible) with the naked eye in a 5000 square meter tank bottom?

For recordkeeping often pictures of the problems found are being taken. Including the TQC CDI label in the photograph retrieves immediately the dimensions of the defects and the writable area on the label offers the possibility to add extra information to the photograph.

In a serial production environment the CDI labels can be used to identify parts for rework or scrap.

Tank Coatings Condition Guide

A guide to assist ship’s staff in the assessment of tank, hold and space coatings of existing ships for the purpose of determining compliance with the Rules and Regulations for the Classification of Ships. The guide handles the definition of the tank coating condition in Good / Fair / Poor classification. It also contains the IACS methodology to divide tanks into a number of smaller “areas under consideration” which can easily be identified. Further are included schematics to help defining area determination, percentage of coatings breakdown for specific ship structures and a comparison of common rust scales. A series of full color pictures of tank coatings in various conditions and a section that describes and shows the hotspots for corrosion and other common defects is also part of the guide.

The last section contains sketched indicating common nomenclature and terminology applied to typical structure of major ship types.

Testex Replica Tape, Press O-Film

Replica tape for measuring blasted surface profiles. By placing the Tqc replica tape on the surface and rubbing over it, the Rt (total roughness) or peak-to-valley height of the profile can be taken and then measured with a film thickness meter.

1. TQC Replica tape consists of a layer of compressible foam affixed to an incompressible polyester substrate.
2.When pressed against a roughened/gritblasted (steel) surface, the foam collapses acquiring an impression of the surface.
3.Placing the compressed tape between the anvils of the SP1570 micrometric thickness gage, and subtracting the contribution of the incompressible substrate (50 micrometers or 0.002 inches), gives a measure of the surface profile.

One box of Testex contains tape for 50 measurements.
