pittingA type of corrosion in which there is loss of metal in localized areas. The corrosion rate in the pits is many times greater than the corrosion rate on the entire surface. The resultant pits can be la [..]

pittingA form of extremely localized attack characterized by holes in the metal. Pitting is one of the most destructive and insidious forms of corrosion. Depending on the environment and the material, a pit [..]

pittingA coating defect consisting of randomly spaced small depressions in the cured film. Pitting is similar to pinholing, except that pits do not expose the bare substrate.
|
4 |
pittingA form of wear characterized by the presence of surface cavities, the formation of which is attributed to processes such as fatigue, local adhesion, cavitation or corrosion.

5 |
pitting(n) the formation of small pits in a surface as a consequence of corrosion(n) a sizeable hole (usually in the ground)(n) a concavity in a surface (especially an anatomical depression)(n) the hard inne [..]

7 |
pittingSmall cavities in a metal surface by nonuniform electrodeposition or by corrosion.
|
8 |
pittinga concentrated attack by oxygen or other corrosive chemicals in a boiler, producing a localized depression in the metal surface.
|
9 |
pittingCorrosion of the metal surface in a vessel often caused by the presence of oxygen.

pittingPitting occurs primarily on gears that exhibit excessive flank pressure. It does not result in spontaneous failure. Instead, the tooth flanks break down by means of pitting. Non-hazardous pitting can [..]

pittingLocalized corrosion of a metal characterized by small blisters under which holes have perforated the metal.

pittingSurface irregularities that may develop on Lamp pins, bases, and sockets which affect Lamp-life and socket operation. Tip: Replace pitted lamps and sockets ASAP.

pittingPitting is Metal loss causing the formation of small depressions in a metallic surface. Pitting may be the result of sand blasting, mechanical gouging, acid etching or corrosion. See Also: Corrosion
