Micrographic detail a longitudinal section of the pin, at the surface, showing the case hardened. The pin carburized, quenched and tempered structure presents a gradient of carbon content and consequently a gradient of martensitic structure and hardness. Close to the surface the hardness level is 742 HV1 .

Scanning electron fractography showing that the fracture micromechanism is intergranular close to the surface of the pin, suggesting a hydrogen embrittlement effect at the carburized layer. The cracks were created during the electrolytic plating, and propagated later during service.
