Abstract / scope
ISO 10332:2010 specifies requirements for automated ultrasonic shear-wave (generated by single element probes or the phased-array technique) testing of seamless and welded (except submerged arc-welded) steel tubes, for verification of hydraulic leak-tightness.
The testing technique is applied for the detection of predominantly longitudinal imperfections.
Where applicable, Lamb-wave testing may be applied at the discretion of the manufacturer.
ISO 10332:2010 is applicable to the inspection of tubes with an outside diameter greater than or equal to 10 mm, and with an outside diameter-to-thickness ratio greater than or equal to 5.
