Abstract

Results are presented of a study showing that for charged Type III cracked or notched specimens of ultrahigh strength steel, hydrogen induced delayed cracking could occur along the planes inclined minus 45 degree to the original notch plane after sufficient torque had been sustained for an adequate period of time. One purpose of this paper is to clarify whether hydrogen induced delayed cracking can also be observed in a charged smooth torsional specimen.
