    Brittle fracture can occur in refinery equipment during hydrotesting due to the presence of defects or impurities in the material. A classic example is shown in Figure 4-16 where a piece of equipment suffered brittle fracture during a hydrotest, likely due to an inherent material defect or impurity that was present. Proper material selection and inspection can help refineries avoid equipment failures due to brittle fracture during hydrotesting and operation.
