Interface Material for Enhancement of Weldability between Dissimilar Materials: 405 Ferritic Stainless Steel and 705 Zr Alloy by Friction Welding Process

K. Koundinya | A. Chennakesava Reddy ^[30]

Abstract: The current work was aimed to assess three joints, namely vee-joint, square joint and plain joint, used for improving weldability of dissimilar 705 Zr alloy and 405 ferritic stainless steel materials with an interface material between them by continuous drive friction welding. Three joints were evaluated for their strength, heat affected zone and metal flow across the weld joints. The vee-joint was found to be better as compared to plain and square joints.
