In present work friction stir welds produced in I mm thick plates of AA 6016-T4 aluminium alloy, with two different tools, were analysed and compared concerning the microstructure and mechanical properties. For each tool, the welding parameters were optimized in order to achieve non-defective welds.

Eng Fract Mech 2008:75(3-4):341-54], the welds produced were classified as hot and cold welds. The results obtained showed that the hot welds, obtained with the maximum tool rotational speed and the minimum traverse speed, have improved mechanical properties relative to the cold welds that were in undermatch condition relative to the base material. The differences in mechanical properties between the two types of welds are explained based in TEM microstructural analysis. Despite the undermatched characteristics of the cold welds relative to the base material, formability tests demonstrated that these welds improve the drawing performance of the welded sheets.
