HIC test failed
HIC test failed
(OP)
Good morning.
I have a ASTM F65 material, which is a low carbon steel.
It has been encountered a HIC crack during the testing, the crack is 40mm long and due to the orientation, it constitutes a failure.
The chemical has passed which is a quite clean material. What other reason can cause this HIC crack failure?
Thanks in advance!

Can you briefly let me know how heat treatment will affect it? Mine is normalised quenched and tempered.
Thanks

My test results said the orientation of the crack cannot resolved by the UT scan, what is that mean?
The test is per NACE TM0284, sample is heattreated machined and polished before testing. I am not familier with the test.
Thanks

RE: HIC test failed
I would suggest you develop a list of questions and discuss them with whomever ran the HIC test, and review the test method. If the mill ran the test, most have competent metallurgical/chem labs that do this testing. If an independent lab ran this test, go back and discuss with them your specific questions, and review the test method. This is the only way you will understand what is going on with your test results.

I have asked the test suplier, they only explain the fact that how I faile the tests.
RE: HIC test failed
This seems rather odd to me, leizhou. Did you require the HIC test as part of a material specification purchase? Are you dealing with a lab or a supplier?
