Micrography, as polished, of the transverse section of the forged pin with the layer applied by a (thermal) spray and fuse process. The layer presented entrapped pores and globular oxides. It was melted after application by thermal spray (in this case using a flame) but the pin was not heat treated after the full application and melting of the layer and the base metal is ferritc-pearlitic.

Cm - As polished micrographyDf - Low Mag
Micrography of the pin close to the interface with the spray and fuse layer. Transverse section. The fuse was conducted in high temperature and the pin was cooled very slowly, forming a ferritic-perlitic structure even for this high hardenability base metal.
