In the present work, low-cycle fatigue (LCF) test and crack tip opening displacement (CTOD) test were performed for 9% Ni steel flux cored arc welding (FCAW) joint at room temperature (296 K) and cryogenic temperature (80 K). At cryogenic temperature, the strain amplitude had a far greater impact on fatigue life of 9%Ni steel welded joint and it decreased dramatically lead to a significant increase in fatigue life. It was found that most fracture initiation of joints located in fusion area at room temperature, while it occurred in weld seam at low temperature. The fracture toughness of weld seam was higher than that of fusion zone no matter the testing temperature. The effect of precipitated phase was the true reason. The fatigue cracks propagated in transgranular mode at room temperature, ultimately, and intergranular mode at low temperature in both LCF specimens and CTOD specimens.
