Hydrogen Fracture of Subsea Allen Bolts
M - Low Alloy Medium Carbon QTP - Coated ProductAp - SubseaCd - Hydrogen Embrittlement
Cm - Nital Etched Micrography by OMDf - Uniform Structure
Micrography of the longitudinal section of the bolt at the top of the thread fillet, showing a small circunferential cracking typically of a rolling process to manufacture the thread.  The thread presented no evidences of plastic deformation suggesting that the heat treatment was applied later.  It is important to mention that this cracking presented no influence in the fracture of the bolt.
