Corrosion Testing
Corrosion testing is a process that is fundamental to understanding how metallic materials, products and components degrade over time. Corrosion testing is the only way to ensure that the tested materials will reach their projected design life.
Corrosion is a natural process that happens to every material under certain environmental conditions.
Corrosion causes materials to degrade. This degradation will eventually lead to the critical failure of equipment, materials or assists.
These kinds of failures can be expensive to fix. However, these issues can also result in unscheduled production downtime and reputational damage to a company or an organisation.
Metlab’s team of corrosion testing services offer the very best corrosion testing services.

How often should pressure vessels be inspected?As a rule of thumb, pressure vessels should be inspected every five years. However, certain pressure vessels will have specific inspection requirements supplied by the manufacturers. Therefore, the frequency of pressure vessel inspections should conform to the manufacturers' requirements. Also, a pressure vessel should be inspected immediately after it’s been installed and before it’s put into service. Not sure how often you should be scheduling pressure vessel testing? Contact our team today and we can make recommendations or schedule a pressure vessel test.

-
Why is concrete testing important?Concrete testing is important because by performing these tests, we are measuring factors like strength, consistency, weight, air content, and temperature. However, by performing concrete testing consistently, we will detect changes in the concrete that could affect its long-term performance. Contact us today to learn more about concrete testing.
-
What are core tests in concrete testing?Core tests are performed to assess whether the concrete in a new structure complies with strength-based acceptance criteria. It is also used in existing structures for the evaluation of structural capacity.
-
What industries take advantage of corrosion testing?Corrosion testing is used in the automotive, aerospace, materials and the construction industry.
-
What is corrosion testing?Corrosion testing is an umbrella term that refers to the processes conducted by laboratories that is designed to help prevent or reduce the issues related to corrosion.
