Micro-Diameter Semi-Rigid GenScope Borescopes

The Micro Semi-Rigid Borescope delivers superior resolution in compact, hard-to-reach areas. Its lightweight stainless-steel design ensures durability and operator comfort during long inspections. Ideal for fuel injectors, nozzles, and miniature components, it offers crisp, clear imaging through a fused quartz fiber-optic image bundle. Available in forward and right-angle views, each scope can be configured with a 360° rotating mirror sleeve for enhanced visibility.

Key Features:

• Lightweight Construction: Reduces operator fatigue during prolonged use.
•  Viewing Options: Available with forward-view or right-angle viewing.
• Size Variability: Offered in multiple diameters and lengths (specs below).
• Semi-Rigid Sheath: Stainless-steel construction provides durability and directional precision.
• Optical Clarity: Quartz-fused fiber optics deliver crisp, bright imaging.
• Accessory Integration: Supports interchangeable eyepieces and direct-to-camera adapters.

Applications:

• Aerospace: Turbine and engine inspection.
• Automotive & Mechanical Systems: Fuel injection and hydraulic system testing.
• Manufacturing & Quality Control: Precision part inspection and quality assurance. 
• Medical Device Production: Used in medical and dental device manufacturing.

Ideal Use Cases:

These are the specific inspection tasks where the SemiRigid delivers the most value compared to standard scopes.

• General Aviation & APU Inspections
  Excellent for straight or gently curved passages where a stiffer probe improves pushability and stability.
• Compressor & Turbine Section Visual Checks
  Ideal for mid-distance borescope ports that require a durable probe but don’t need full articulation.
• Heat Exchanger & Boiler Tube Inspection
  Great for inspecting metal tubing where rigidity helps navigate long, narrow channels.
• Automotive Cylinder & Engine Chamber Inspection
  Perfect for spark-plug ports, valves, and pistons where a stable probe provides clear imagery.
• Industrial Piping & Weld Verification
  Useful for checking weld seams, corrosion, scaling, and internal deposits.

Bottom Line:
If the inspection demands a balance of flexibility and directional stability, the SemiRigid scope provides the ideal mix of control and maneuverability.
