Brittle Fracture of a High Strength Socket
M - Medium Carbon Tool SteelP - ToolAp - Oil and GasCd - Brittle Fracture
Cm - Nital Etched Micrography by OMDf - Martensite
Micrography of the tool steel, in the longitudinal section of the part. The material presented a uniform structure, tempered martensite. The tempering was in low temperature since the hardness is high (58 HRc at the surface).
