Pitting corrosion - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Pitting corrosion , or pitting , is a form of extremely localized corrosion that leads to the creation of small holes in the metal. The driving power for pitting corrosion is the lack of oxygen aro...

Pitting is a localized form of corrosive attack. Pitting corrosion is typified by the formation of holes or pits on the metal surface. Pitting can cause failure due to perforation while the total corrosion, as measured by weight loss, might be rather minimal.

information on corrosion monitoring and corrosion sensors and probes ... Pitting corrosion is a localized form of corrosion; the bulk of the surface remains unattacked. Pitting is often found in situations where resistance against general corrosion is conferred by passive surface films.

Pitting corrosion is highly localized corrosion occurring on a metal surface. Pitting is commonly observed on surfaces with little or no general corrosion. Pitting typically occurs as a process of local anodic dissolution where metal loss is exacerbated by the presence of a small anode and a large cathode.

Pitting corrosion is particularly insidious. The attack is in the form of highly localized holes that can penetrate inwards extremely rapidly, while the rest of the surface remains intact. A component can be perforated in a few days with no appreciable loss in weight on the structure as a whole.
