Hydrogen Fracture of a 17-4 PH Allen Bolt
M - Precipitation Hardened Stainless SteelP - Allen BoltAp - SubseaCd - Hydrogen Embrittlement
Cm - Aspect Before AnalysisDf - Fracture
Macroscopic view of the fracture surface showing that there is a flat appearance of the fracture close to the bottom of the thread (upper side of the figure) and a flat, but rough appearance in the center of the stud. No evidences of corrosion in the thread fillets indicating that the stud was protected.

ML00136 — Hydrogen Cracks of Subsea StudsM - Low Alloy Medium Carbon QTP - FastenerAp - SubseaCd - Hydrogen Embrittlement
Macroscopic detail of the stud, adjacent to the fracture, showing that there are several secondary cracks at the bottom of the thread fillets, without any deformation evidence. This reveals a brittle material behavior, although the hardness measured at the stud end revealed 33HRc, as should be expected by the material specification.
