Micrography of the weded joint at the cap pass fusion line. The columnar structure of the weld metal is to the top of the figure; and it is possible to see the coarse grains at the heat affected zone. Both columnar structure and coarse grains are related to the previous austenite grain boundaries. From the fusion line to the base metal (in the bottom of the figure) the grain sizes are refined.

Cm - Nital Etched Micrography by OMDf - Close to the External Surface
Micrographic detail of a transverse section of the tubing, close to the internal surface. Ferritic-pearlitic structure. Very close to the surface the amount of ferrite is higher than in the center and the grain is coarser, due to a decarburization effect probably occurred when the surface was exposed to high temperature during manufacturing.
