Localized External Wear of a Wire Rope
M - High Carbon SteelP - Wire RopeAp - Oil and GasCd - Wear
Cm - Nital Etched Micrography by OMDf - Zn Layer
Micrography of the casting at the surface, presenting a zinc layer deposited in a hot dip process. The thickness of the layer is about 0.3mm in this position, that is higher than expected for this process. The steel substrate is not revealed because the etch was light and the zinc layer protects the low aloy steel during the etch.

Cm - Fractography by SEMDf - Zn Layer
Micrographic detail of the section transverse to the fracture (top of the figure), suggesting the intergranular morphology (at the previous austenite grain boundaries) and the deposits of zinc over the fracture that create a condition of protection of the base metal during the metallographic etch, and the material is not fully etched.
