Cm - Kalling Etched Micrography by OMDf - In the Center of the Thickness
The micrography of a transverse section of the shaft shows a duplex grain size structure in the center of the shaft. This conditions was probably generated due to the delta phase presented in segregated bands in the center of the original bar.
