Popis: Friction stir welding (FSW) is called a novel technique from the past two decades. Principle and microstructure of FSW process invented by Wayne Thomas at TWI in 1991, UK. It is becoming an emerging technique with its wide area of applications. FSW is enhancing day by day by overcoming the impacts of welding caused to the welders as well as environment. FSW is a simple solid state joining technique,which uses a rotating non-consumable tool for joining the metal parts by generating frictional heat. In this paper we studied about the various metals and alloys used for joining and their mechanical properties with applications were discussed
