SortNewestOldestTitle A-ZTitle Z-A
Low magnification micrography presenting segregation bands in a martensitic structure. In the segregated regions the Nital etch effect is lower and the bands appear lighter. The black spots and lines are inclusions (some elongated) in the band.

Cm - Aspect Before AnalysisDf - Longitudinal Section
The macrography of a longitudinal section of the pipe and connector, at the welded joint, shows that the welding was conducted from both side of the groove, starting from the ID and finishing from the OD, ID later machined flush. The cracking was detected by ultrasonic test and the macro shows that it is at the fusion line, growthing into the weld metal. See the schematic drawing in the next figure
