- cracking. failure at the welds due to excessive heat. heat is bad for weld. heat is good for flow. it's a trade off. you'll be more susceptible to failure at welded joints.- metal decomposition due to excessive heat, and trapped moisture. even stainless can corrode. stainless steel is a misnomer anyway, it's technically 'corrosive resistant'. However, trapped water in the blanket can QUICKLY degrade weld joints if (weld filler dependant), and stainless can corrode when heat and moisture are present. Dont forget, many fasteners are not stainless, these will corrode and sieze quite easily. As for as heat, it's absolutely a great thing (historically). I've personally not had great results with it (Joop)
