Friction Stir Welding (FSW) is an emerging solid state welding method which is finding increasingly widespread industrial acceptance for joining similar and dissimilar materials. Aluminium to copper bimetallic lap joints have got wide acceptance in the electrical and electronic industries. Commercially, pure Al/Cu bimetallic lap joints are fabricated by the FSW technology using tapered and straight fluted tools. This paper presents valuable information on electromechanical behavior of aluminium to copper bimetallic lap joints required for critical applications such as high current busbars, heavy duty earthing strips, etc. The experiments are conducted based on Design of Experiments (DoE) to reduce the number of trials. It is observed that better joint properties are obtained in the joints fabricated using straight fluted tool and the joint resistance is negligible, as in manufactured condition.
