Inclusions
The grain boundaries usually contain impurities such as refractory brick or trapped slag left from the refining process. There
impurities are called Inclusions and are usually small enough not to weaken the metal. in fact inclusions are seldom harmful unless
they are too large or in a high stress area.

Details of fractured
Misalignment condition between Cap, Bolts, and Ball Lift Cylinder will produce pre-crack on Ball stud area. Pre-crack that shown on
Ball Stud proved by there’s overload condition on one sides of Ball Stud because its directly contacts with the Cap. Pre-crack will
getting worst within operational unit then the stress generated to fatigue fractured on Ball Stud. Fatigue fractured shown by there’s
beach marks area on surface of fracture. Ball Stud also got high load due to operational, this is indicated from brittle area on surface
of final fracture. This fracture include on high stressed reversed bending characteristics.
Fatigue Fractured is a type of fracture that caused by the maximum Brittle Fractured is a type of fracture that caused by the
tensile stress caused by bending force. The characteristics are : Shocked load or Impact force. The characteristics are:
1. There is a beach marks which indicates that there is a 1. Found chevron : the direction of Crack growth that leads to
large change of load (direction fatigue crack growth). point or an area.
2. Surface of fracture are flat and smooth. 2. Surface of fracture looks bright when expose to light.
3. Surface of fracture more light color than Ductile Fracture. 3. Rough surface of fracture.
