Summary

An assessment of the effect of surface finish produced during electrochemical machining upon fatigue life of Nimonic 80A has been made. Surfaces exhibiting pitting and intergranular attack showed slightly worse fatigue properties than brightened and polished surfaces but any reduction due to surface finish defects was small in comparison with that due to removal of compressive stress.
