Cm - As polished micrographyDf - Intergranular Cracking
Micrography of a longitudinal section of the bolt, close to the fracture surface (top of the figure). The fracture is macroscopically flat and started at the surface (left side) in a position close to the bolt body to bolt head transition. The structure is aged martensite.

ML00074 — Hydrogen Cracking of a 17-4 PH Subsea BoltM - Precipitation Hardened Stainless SteelP - FastenerAp - SubseaCd - Hydrogen Embrittlement
The micrography, in the "as polished" condition, of the longitudinal section of the bolt showing that there are non-continuous longitudinal cracks, intergranular, associated to regions of impurities, probably segregation bands, as evidenced by the grey elongated sulfide inclusions.
