Popis: The weldability of aluminum bronze alloys lends it to fabrication of items such as pipes and pressure vessels. Thus, obtaining high strength along with good ductility is necessary. Gas tungsten arc welding of Cu–7Al–3Fe aluminum bronze alloy was performed by variation of some parameters such as shielding gas flow rate, preheat and post weld heat treatment. Optical and scanning electron microscopy along with EDX analysis was applied for different samples. Microhardness measurements and tensile tests were performed to see the effect of these parameters on ultimate tensile strength and ductility of samples.
