Image of the magnetic particle test, using a white contrast, presenting the cracks at the surface of the weld metal. The cracks are transverse to the weld and do not propagate into the base metals. A forged T in the right side of the figure and a thick wall tube in the left side of the figure, both in P12 CrMo steel.

ML00071 — Reheating Cracking of a CrMo Vessel WeldM - CrMo SteelP - In Field WeldAp - EnergyCd - Welding Defect
Aspect of the butt welded joint surface, after grinding to remove the reinforcement, polishing and macro etching. There are multiple cracks, transverse to the weld and restricted to the weld metal. The surface hardness are 167HB for the tube (left side), 180 HB for the Forged T (right side) and 272 HB for the weld metal, suggesting lack of a suitable PWHT.

The morphology of the cracking in the weld metal is intergranular (in the previous austenite grain boundaries), and branched. The replication technique was adopted to define the nature of the cracks.
