Calculator
Corrosion Rate Calculator
Estimate corrosion rate and remaining life from two thickness measurements taken over time.
Use this calculator to estimate the corrosion rate of an asset from two ultrasonic thickness measurements taken at different times, then estimate remaining life before a minimum allowable thickness is reached.
Inputs

Corrosion rate0.3 mm/year
Metal loss1.5 mm
Estimated remaining life15 years
Important Notes
- This is an indicative estimate only and assumes a linear corrosion rate.
- Always confirm remaining life with a qualified inspector and a formal fitness-for-service assessment.
