The Applied Technical Services Family of Companies (ATS FoC) conducts full-scale corrosion testing to help manufacturers assess how industrial assets, critical structures, or entire systems will perform under real-world conditions before deployment or distribution.
Testing the actual asset itself rather than material samples alone delivers actionable data on long-term service life, safety, and reliability. Full-scale corrosion testing gives clients confidence before assets enter service and helps reduce the risk of failure and safety hazards that can lead to costly repairs or recalls down the line.
What Assets Typically Undergo Full-Scale Corrosion Testing?
Full-scale corrosion testing is most commonly used for high-value, mission-ready, or safety-critical assets where corrosion failures have serious operational consequences.
- Pipeline Sections
- Oil and Gas Equipment (Pressure Vessels, Tanks, Valves)
- Offshore Marine Structures
- Aerospace Structures
- Structural, Aircraft, and Automotive Assemblies
- Entire Vehicle Bodies
- Heat Exchangers
- Infrastructure Assets (Bridge Components, Transportation Equipment, Utility Structures )
- Power Generation Equipment
- Industrial Processing Equipment
