  By Prashanth Pai M., Manujesh B.J., Mohammed Saleem, Amil Azeez, Nithin M.K., C.V. Pujar

  Abstract: Aluminum alloy Al-6061 is extensively used in aerospace, automotive, and marine industries due to its excellent mechanical properties, lightweight nature, and corrosion resistance. However, welding this alloy presents challenges such as porosity, hot cracking, and strength reduction in the heat-affected zone (HAZ). Tungsten Inert Gas (TIG) welding, known for its precision and quality, is commonly employed for joining Al-6061. This study investigates the tensile strength of TIG-welded butt joints of …
