Corrosion metre meter here in Kansas City) is the term commonly used for an ultrasonic thickness gage with a pitch-catch (dual element) probe. Probes are available that essentially "focus"within various depth/wall thickness ranges so they are quite sensitive to interior surface corrosion pits. I recently bought a Dakota Ultrasonics MDX and am quite pleased with it, but there are several others that are probably just as good. I like to have an A-scan (time -amplitude display) and the ability to store setups and data that can be downloaded to a computer. The price depends on the number of features. Resolution of this type of gage is usualy +/- 0.001 inch or 0.01 mm. There is a good guide to selecting ultrasonic gages at www.ndtsupply.com-
