Abstract

The aim of present study is to analyze the effect of mechanical properties of friction stir welded butt joint of 6061 aluminium alloy plates in 5 mm thickness. With this aim, welds are produced using high carbon steel tool, having cylindrical pin of 6 mm diameter and shoulder of 20 mm diameter. Vicker’s Micro hardness tests are done in transverse direction of weld to check the hardness distribution in weld nugget. Transverse tensile tests are performed to evaluate the weakest portion of weld joints and transverse impact tests are performed to evaluate the toughness of the weld.
