Their work is constantly monitored to ensure it consistently meets the high quality standards and expectations of our customers. Nuclear Density & Moisture Gauges Qal-Tek offers the most comprehensive and complete service and support capability of any company in this field. Our calibration services for portable nuclear density gauges have become the choice for over a thousand laboratories across the nation. Our ability to provide convenient, highly accurate, and affordable three block calibrations accredited by A2LA has become a trademark of Qal-Tek. We also offer unequaled single-point convenience via our four calibration service platforms, repair, rentals, reconditioned/new gauge sales, and disposal. With one call, Qal-Tek can do it all.spectrum Gauge Repair Each of our fixed and mobile calibration laboratories are equipped with parts from the main suppliers so we can quickly fix the problems without causing delays.

Our OSCAR trucks and technicians are also equipped to calibrate your lab test & measurement equipment so we can combine both in one visit thus saving you even more time, hassle, and additional service fees. Once on board, we call you well in advance of your calibration due date and coordinate a visit through our well-established logistics system. #2 Shipping Qal-Tek offers special pricing for those who cannot wait until an OSCAR can arrive.
