M - High Carbon SteelP - Wire RopeAp - StructureCd - Corrosion Fatigue
Cm - Nital Etched Micrography by OMDf - Longitudinal Section
Micrography of the plate in a section, in the middle of the thickness. The aligned pitting is associated to the chemical etch of inclusions and second phases. The structure is granular but the grain boundaries do not appear at that magnification, originally 50x.
