In this research paper, microstructures and mechanical properties of friction stir welded joint of 6082 aluminium
alloy to 6082 aluminium plates in 3 mm thickness with using filler materials. With this aim, welds were produced
using High molybdenum high speed steel, with a cylindrical pin tool having 3 mm and 14 mm diameter of pin and
shoulder respectively. The microstructure and vicker’s microhardeness performed on TMAZ, HAZ and NZ.
Transverse tensile test were performed to evaluate the weakest portion of weld joints.
