The through wall cracking was opened by citting the two sides and the aspect was characterized by SEM. Although there was a film at the fracture surface, probably because the fitting was removed from service some time after it was leaking, the fracture micromechanism is by quasecleavage, typical of a stress corrosion cracking.

Cm - Fractography by SEMDf - Fatigue Fracture
Micrography of a longitudinal section of the flared tubing where the fracture occurred. The starting point of the fracture is associated to the external side of the tubing, where it was connected by a nut and there was a localized plastic deformation due to the fitting assembly.
