Application
This unit describes the performance outcomes required to conduct non-destructive testing of vehicle wheel and rim assemblies. It requires the ability to use technical skills to prepare for and conduct non-destructive testing.
It applies to those who conduct non-destructive testing of vehicle wheels and rims in order to determine their serviceability by checking for material defects and malfunctions.
Licensing, legislative, regulatory or certification requirements may apply to this unit in some jurisdictions. Users are advised to check with the relevant regulatory authority.

Performance Evidence
Before competency can be determined, individuals must have competently conducted non-destructive testing on wheels and rims on a minimum of four occasions, using at least two of the following hardness testing methods:
- penetrant
- magnetic
- Rockwell
- Brinell.
Individuals must demonstrate they can:
- prepare equipment for testing, including zeroing and calibration checks
- select and apply testing methods
- verify test results
- record test outcomes.
Knowledge Evidence
Individuals must be able to demonstrate knowledge of:
- principles and methods of penetrant, magnetic, Rockwell and Brinell hardness testing, and limitations, advantages and hazards associated with the testing
- non-destructive testing terminology
- non-destructive test equipment use, maintenance and storage
- non-destructive testing preparation procedures
- non-destructive testing verification methods and techniques
- non-destructive testing analysis techniques
- reporting and recording procedures relevant to non-destructive testing.
Assessment Conditions
Assessors must satisfy SNR/AQTF assessor requirements.
Competency is to be assessed in the workplace or a simulated environment that accurately reflects performance in a real workplace setting.
Where assessment of competency includes third-party evidence, individuals must provide evidence that links them to the equipment that they have worked on, e.g. test results.
Assessors must verify performance evidence through questioning on skills and knowledge to ensure correct interpretation and application.
The following resources must be made available:
- Australian standards relevant to the non-destructive testing of wheel and rim assemblies
- workplace procedures and manufacturer instructions
- non-destructive testing equipment
- workplace location or simulated workplace.
