Fractography of the broken Charpy V testpiece, in a high strength steel that absorbed 11 Joules at 20°C. Quasicleavage and dimples are the main fracture micromechanisms with some secondary cracks that appear to be intergranular, exactly as the fracture of the part.

Brittle Fracture of a High Strength Socket
M - Medium Carbon Tool SteelP - ToolAp - Oil and GasCd - Brittle Fracture
Cm - Fractography by SEMDf - Broken Testpiece
Fractographic detail of the longitudinal Charpy V testpiece, broken at -46°C and presenting energy of 64J (the average energy of three tespieces was 70J). The Charpy V testpiece was removed from the center of the bar. The micromechanism is quasicleavage and the test in this direction presented energy values superior than the minimum requirement of 45J.

ML00161 — Brittle Fracture of a High Strength SocketM - Medium Carbon Tool SteelP - ToolAp - Oil and GasCd - Brittle Fracture
Fractography of the broken tensile testpiece, in a high strength steel (about 260Ksi Yield Strength) that presented 10% elongation. The fracture micromechanism in a static test is quasicleavage and dimples, with some secondary cracks that appear to be intergranular, exactly as the fracture of the part.

Fractography of the Charpy V testpiece, transverse section, broken at -46°C and presenting energy of 20J (the average of three results was 33J). The coarse structure and the alignement created a condition for low energy results in this specific direction, and the material did not present the minimum requirement of 45J.
