Cm - Nital Etched Micrography by OMDf - Ferrite and Pearlite
Metallographic aspect of a longitudinal section of the clamp, at the surface (left side of the image) showing a region where there are corrosion pits in the carbon steel clamp, due to the lack of protection by the coating, and the propagation of small transgranular cracks from to the surface.

Cm - Nital Etched Micrography by OMDf - Grain refined structure
Micrography of the weded joint at the cap pass fusion line. The columnar structure of the weld metal is to the top of the figure; and it is possible to see the coarse grains at the heat affected zone. Both columnar structure and coarse grains are related to the previous austenite grain boundaries. From the fusion line to the base metal (in the bottom of the figure) the grain sizes are refined.
