Abstract

The mechanism of tool penetration during friction stir spot welding of Al-alloy and Mg-alloy sheet materials is investigated and is explained as a progression of wear events, from mild wear to severe wear and then to melt wear in material beneath the base of the rotating pin. Melt wear can also occur under the rotating tool shoulder provided that sufficient penetration of the upper sheet occurs during the spot welding operation.
