Abstract

Aluminum 6061 is a lightweight metal and has a corrosion resistance and good conductivity. In the marine industry, aluminum 6061 is widely used for ship construction. Friction Stir Welding (FSW) uses the principle of utilizing friction from a rotating work piece with another stationary work piece so that it is able to melt the stationary work piece and finally connect it together. The focused of this study is to determine the impact strength, tensile strength and micrographic structure of the butt joint of FSW Welding. The feed rate is determined as 10 mm / min with the variations of rpm speed is defined as 1640 rpm, 2620 rpm, and 3820 rpm. Tensile strength, impact strength and micrographic evaluation will be discussed to assess the effect of rotational speed on the strength of the welded joint produced by Friction Stir Welding.
