How to Choose an Articulated Borescope

Articulated Borescope is essentially endoscopes used in the inspection of internal components. Many auto mechanics keep a Articulated Borescope on hand to check for internal damage or defects in your car engine.

To perform their job correctly, Articulated Borescope need to be small, flexible, portable and provide high resolution photographs and videos.

Probe Size

The size of the probe on the Articulated Borescope is important, as it needs to be large enough to facilitate a camera, but narrow enough to fit into a confined space. For example, Diesel engines have very small tubes, and can accommodate only Articulated Borescope that are 6mm or less in diameter.
 

Camera Resolution

Camera resolution is another important factor to consider when choosing a Articulated Borescope. The camera on your borescope probe should be high resolution if you wish to see fine details in the images and videos it is capturing.

Screen

A good Articulated Borescope will feature an LCD screen that allows you to view images and videos through the camera in real-time. You should ensure that the LCD screen on your choice of Articulated Borescope is large enough to meet your needs, without sacrificing the device’s portability.
