Failure Analysis of 316L Stainless Steel Pipe

In this article, published in Stainless Steel World Americas, MISTRAS explores the causes of pipe cracking through a failure analysis of a 40-inch 316L stainless steel pipe that leaked during hydrogen testing. The results, highly relevant to industries that rely on stainless steel assets, point to chloride-induced stress corrosion by corrosion under insulation (CUI) as the source of the pipe cracking.
