Micrography of the branch cracking parallel to the fracture. There are several secondary intergranular cracks and the cracks are filled with zinc. The zinc appears dark because of the Nital etch, and the steel close to the cracking is not fully revealed because of the protection by the zinc.

Micrography of the longitudinal section of the stud showing internal cracks, secondary (not the cracks that opened the fracture). It is evident that the cracking from the thread fillet, of a ductile aspect, presented a different aspect than the internal cracks, of a brittle aspect.
