Aspect of the fracture surface of the 2" diameter casting. The fracture appeared flat, with secondary cracks, and the position of the fracture during the loading test is located in the region that was in tensile stress during the hot dip galvanized process (the part was sustaining its own weight during the zinc hot dip bath).

Cm - Nital Etched Micrography by OMDf - Bainitic Martensitic
Micrography of the casting at the surface, presenting a zinc layer deposited in a hot dip process. The thickness of the layer is about 0.3mm in this position, that is higher than expected for this process. The steel substrate is not revealed because the etch was light and the zinc layer protects the low aloy steel during the etch.
