ABSTRACT:
For sampling a section of a tube in a nuclear fuel assembly comprising a skeleton formed by two end-pieces joined by tubes fixed to the end-pieces an opening for the extraction of the section through the upper end-piece is cut out with a milling cutter. Through the inside and by means of a cutting tool, the spacer tube is cut off at a level beneath the junction with the upper end-piece by means of a rotary tool introduced through the upper end-piece and the latter is extracted through the opening.
