Abstract
There are several friction welding procedures that have, to a greater or lesser extent, a commercial application, among which can be distinguished FSW - Friction Stir Welding. Firstly, using the FSW procedure, straight-line compounds were obtained, and soon afterwards also curvilinear, including circular. In addition to the great interest in the FSW process, many aspects of this process have not been sufficiently explored. This applies, inter alia, to the geometry of the tool. In this paper, the application of FSW welding to aluminium alloys is investigated, by varying different types of tool pin used during welding. Also, microstructure testing was performed, which was used for comparison and gradation of the quality of welds, welded with tools of different geometric shapes.
