ML00136 — Hydrogen Cracks of Subsea StudsM - Low Alloy Medium Carbon QTP - FastenerAp - SubseaCd - Hydrogen Embrittlement
Macroscopic detail of the stud, adjacent to the fracture, showing that there are several secondary cracks at the bottom of the thread fillets, without any deformation evidence. This reveals a brittle material behavior, although the hardness measured at the stud end revealed 33HRc, as should be expected by the material specification.

Cm - Aspect Before AnalysisDf - Secondary Cracks
Macrography of a stud longitudinal sectiion at the fracture position (top of the figure). It is possible to see a large secondary crack at the bottom of the thread fillet adjacent to the fracture surface, without any deformation evidence. This reveals a brittle material behavior, although the hardness measured at the stud end revealed 33HRc, as should be expected by the material specification.

M - Low Alloy Medium Carbon QTP - FastenerAp - SubseaCd - Hydrogen Embrittlement
Cm - NItal Etched MacroDf - Secondary Cracks
Low magnification micrography of a stud longitudinal section in the first thread fillet adjacent to the fracture, presenting a large secondary crack without any deformation evidence. This reveals a brittle material behavior, although the hardness measured at the stud end revealed 33HRc, as should be expected by the material specification.

Cm - Nital Etched Micrography by OMDf - Secondary Cracks
Low magnification micrography showing how the large secondary crack propagated in the thickness of the stud, with a branching aspect, different than the propagation close to the bottom of the thread fillet.
