Extremely thin intermetallic layer in dissimilar AA6061-T6 and mild steel friction stir lap welding using a hemispherical tool
Abstract The dissimilar friction stir lap welding of AA6061-T6 and mild steel using the hemispherical tool tilted towards the retreating side is investigated. Critical defects such as hook features and internal voids are avoided by limiting the plunge depth in the lower plate to a tenth of a millime...
