Learn more about the inspection challenges associated with fretting in fired heater, furnace, and boiler tubing in the on-demand replay of our latest webinar.

In this session, Tim Haugen and Johnny Weaver of Quest Integrity join Inspectioneering to examine the role of inspection resolution in detecting and sizing localized wall loss. Drawing on field experience, smart pigging inspection data, and case studies, they compare technologies with varying UT resolutions and their ability to characterize fretting damage.

Fretting can occur in hard-to-access locations and cause highly localized wall loss, making it difficult to detect and accurately size using traditional inspection methods.

Join us Wednesday, September 2, at 1:00 PM CDT as Inspectioneering teams up with Quest Integrity for “Fretting: The Small Stuff (In Fired Heater, Furnace, and Boiler Tubing),” a complimentary webinar that examines fretting from cause to detection. This session covers where and why fretting develops, the operational conditions that promote it, and the challenges it presents for inspectors.

Attendees will learn how smart pigging technologies with different UT resolutions can affect flaw detectability and sizing accuracy, including the influence of measurement grid size, sampling density, and edge effects. Case studies illustrate how these differences play out in practice, including instances where lower-resolution tools missed damage that more advanced technology accurately identified.
