ML00178 — Cold cracks in Cr-Mo Welded ForgingM - CrMo SteelP - ForgingAp - O&G Well DrillingCd - Welding Defect
The intergranular morphology of the cracking, at the heat affected zone of the forging, indicated it is a cold cracking probably formed when the welded joint was not yet post welding heat treated. The crack propagated into the grain refined HAZ, martensitic structure.
