Crevice Corrosion in a Subsea System — Aspect Before Analysis

Aspect before cleaning of the heavy U bolt pipe clamp, 38 mm diameter wire, at the fractured position.  It is possible to see that it broke in a region where the clamp was no longer coated and there is no insert in the groove (at the internal clamp diameter).  The fracture is transverse to the clamp axis.
