    DEFECTS IN STEEL

     CAVITIES OR BLOW HOLES – These are


    formed when gas is confined or imprisoned in
    molten mass of metal.
     COLD SHORTNESS – The steel having this
    defect cracks when being worked in cold state.
     RED SHORTNESS – The steel having this
    defect cracks when being worked in hot state.
     SEGREGATION – Some constituents of steel
    solidify at an early stage and they separate out
    from main mass.
