Abstract:
Shot peening coverage is confirmed by mounting a test strip having surface irregularities of graduated depth on a surface of a component undergoing peening for which peening
coverage is to be confirmed. The component, with the test strip attached thereto, is exposed to the shot stream under production conditions. The strip, which is selected
according to a procedure described herein such that some, but not all, of the surface irregularities are removed when proper peening coverage is attained, is then removed
and examined.
