ML00089 — Inconel 718 Allen Bolt for Subsea ApplicationM - NiCrFe AlloyP - Machined PartAp - SubseaCd - Typical manufacturing
The macrography shows the longitudinal section of the allen bolt, 1/2" nominal diameter, that was machined from a heat treated bar (solution annealed and aged). The granular structure presents differences in the grain sizes. At the bolt head (external surface of the original bar) the austenitic grain size is larger than in the center of the bar where the particles in segregated bands "arrested" the grains during hot forming and solution annealing.

Cm - Kalling Etched MacroDf - Austenite
The micrography of a longitudinal section, at the bolt head close to the surface of the original bar. In this region the material increased the grain size due to the lack of particles (inclusions), to "arrest" the grain boundaries (during hot forming and solution annealing). The smaller grain size is located in the center of the bar, that concentrated the inclusions.
