Electric Motor Tie Bolt Hydrogen Embrittlement Risk Mitigation Project
ELECTRIC MOTOR TIE BOLT HYDROGEN EMBRITTLEMENT RISK MITIGATION PROJECT CHALLENGE The Field team informed a customer of the high risk of internal hydrogen embrittlement on a series of grade 12.9 zinc plated socket head cap screws which they were using in electric motors. These parts had seen failures in the past, and going forward Field did not want such risky parts to be used anymore. SOLUTION Field researched various non-embrittl
