THE LAST FIBERSCOPE THAT
YOU WILL EVER NEED

The Ultimate Non Conductive Fiberscope ( ULTNC ) has been specifically designed for applications where no metal can be exposed on the fiberscope shaft for electrical safety and to reduce the possibility of conduction.

The ULTNC - Sealed Non-Conductive Flexible Scope, 6 mm (.236 ins) diameter Flexible Fiberscope provides a high-resolution image of difficult to reach areas. Looks around corners and into dark, deep recesses without the need for costly, dangerous or time-consuming teardowns. May be used in environments which are hostile to traditional fiberscopes. Gasoline, Diesel, ship and aviation fuel safe. Optional features allow use of cameras, recording devices and monitors as well the insertion of a microphone at the distal end of the fiberscope or simple tools for detailed examination as well as use of an Infra Red Camera.

High grade optics produce very bright defect free images, while the intense Halogen light source delivers cool ample light while keeping all potentially spark igniting electrical components carried around the shoulder or on a waist belt, well away from the inspection zone, making this one of the safest fiberscopes to use. Also as the heavier components are carried on the body, the hands have only the lightweight viewer to hold.


The revolutionary (Patent Applied for) design allows for the replacement of the articulation control cables by the operator in the field with minimal down time greatly reducing repair costs should the articulation cables break. This is an exclusive feature to our product.
