ML00173 — Welding Cracks in an Aged HP Cast FittingM - Heat Resistant SteelP - Cast FtittingAp - PetrochemicalCd - Welding
Fusion line between the aged base metal (in the top) and the weld metal (in the bottom). There is a region where the primary carbides melted (partially melted zone), that appears dark, and a region of high dilution cloe to the fusion line.
