Macrography of a longitudinal section of the pipe at the fracture position, in the thinner thickness. The external side of the pipe (OD) is to the left side of the figure, and the internal side of the pipe is to the rigth of the figure. The fracture occurred by shearing the pipe in a single event (probably due to tensile stresses during removal).

Macrographic detail of the longitudinal section of the pipe at the fracture position, in the thicker thickness. The several secondary cracks, opened to the OD, were created during bending and shows evidences of compression, responsible for the increase in the pipe thickness.

Micrography of a longitudinal section of the pipe at the fracture position, in the thinner thickness. The diagonal line in the middle of the figure is the fracture surface and it is possible to identify that it was sheared with strong plastic deformation. The segregation bands (longitudinal lines) are deformed in the direction of the failure shearing, in a depth that is several milimeters deep in the pipe, from the fracture surface.
