New Advanced Inspection Technologies Small Diameter Flexible Borescope Offers Versatile, Low Cost Fiberscope Inspection Solution

Melbourne, FL - Advanced Inspection Technologies Inc. announced the offering of a new flexible fiber optic borescope. The new 2.4 mm Fiberscope allows for 2-Way articulation in tight inspection areas, high resolution borescope images and an affordable price.

2-way articulation is unheard of in such small diameter fiberscopes. This breakthrough is made possible due to precise design and engineering. The new 2.4 mm fiberscope is constructed of the highest quality leached fiber optic image bundle for brilliant high resolution images. The working length of the fiberscope is constructed of tungsten for maximum durability in tough industrial systems. In addition, at just 2.4 mm (.094") in diameter, Advanced Inspection Technologies small diameter flexible Borescope can be 'snaked' into tight locations requiring visual inspections.

High resolution is produced by 6,000 fiber optic pixels, which deliver an image nearly equal in quality to those delivered from rigid borescopes. An achromatic eyepiece provides users a crisp image, covering the entire field of view.

"AIT's small diameter Flexible Borescope represents a great value for users seeking a Fiberscope that offers all of the sharpness and capabilities of a rigid borescope, but requiring the versatility of a small diameter flexible scope," said Paul Fitzgerald.

Ideal for a wide range of inspection applications, the portable fiberscopes are used to inspect for corrosion, leaks, cracks, stress, wear, blockages, deposits, and debris, and are recommended for tubing, castings, and machined parts.

The new flexible borescope is both waterproof and resistant to oil and fuel. With a bend radius of 30mm (1.18") the small diameter borescope has a depth of field from 5 mm (.197") to 100 mm (.985"), and a field of view of 40°. The new fiberscope is backed by a 2 year warranty.

Advanced Inspection Technologies personnel are available to assist in choosing the proper borescope for any application. For more information or to place an order for the new Borescope, visit http://aitproducts.com/index.php/flexible-fiberscopes/2-4mm-fiberscope.
