Corrosion Fatigue of U Bolt Pipe Clamp
M - Low Carbon SteelP - BoltAp - ShipCd - Corrosion Fatigue
Cm - Nital Etched Micrography by OMDf - Longitudinal Section
The tube microstructure is ferritic-pearlitic, typical of this kind of material. No evidences of microstrutural changes were detected (no overheating, no decarburization).

M - Low Carbon SteelP - BoltAp - ShipCd - Corrosion Fatigue
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.

Corrosion Fatigue of U Bolt Pipe Clamp
M - Low Carbon SteelP - BoltAp - ShipCd - Corrosion Fatigue
Cm - Micrography by OMDf - Crack
The clamp presented several cracks, parallel, transverse to the axis. The appearance of the cracks in the metallographic section shows that some cracks propagate and growth with a irregular path.
