Effect of Different Tool Probe Profiles on Material Flow of Al–Mg–Cu Alloy Joined by Friction Stir Welding

Friction Stir Welding (FSW) was utilized to butt−join 2024–T4 aluminum alloy plates of 1.9 mm thickness, using tools with conical and tapered hexagonal probe profiles. The characteristic effects of FSW using tools with tapered hexagonal probe profiles include an increase in the heat input and a sign...
