Aspect of the internal surface of the 2" nominal diameter pipe, SCH 40, presenting a circumferential through wall cracking in the pipe, not associated to any of the welded joints. It is possible to see the cracking parallel to the two welded joints: the pipe to weldolet (left side of the figure); and the pipe to flange (right side of the figure).
