Crevice Corrosion in a Subsea System — Aspect Before Analysis

Fracture aspect of the casting cylinder at the 10.5 mm thickness, showing a brittle behavior (lack of plastic deformation). The internal side of the cylinder is to the top of the figure, and the painted surface is to the bottom of the figure.

Aspect of the fracture surface of the 2" diameter casting.  The fracture appeared flat, with secondary cracks, and the position of the fracture during the loading test is located in the region that was in tensile stress during the hot dip galvanized process (the part was sustaining its own weight during the zinc hot dip bath).
