General view of the broken socket. The failure occurred during service, when the tool was tightening 3 3/4" bolts at 75% of the torque capacity. The fracture occurred associated to the smaller section of the socket, thickness of 13 mm, at the corner of the radio, that is a stress concentration raiser.

Macroscopic view of the fracture in the pipe body. In the bottom of the figure, the fracture of the pipe shows a thicker thickness, revealing that this is the pipe region that was first damaged by bending (buckling). In the top of the figure, the fracture shows a (ductile) shearing mechanism and the thickness is thinner, as will be better observed in the macrography.
