Weldability of Ferritic Stainless Steel
Abstract: The ferritic stainless steels are generally considered less weldable than austenitic stainless steels. In case of welding of first-generation ferritic stainless steels, rapid grain growth of ferrite takes place in both the fusion zone and heat-affected zone. These coarse grains have very low ductility and toughness. Excessive grain growth can be avoided by using lower welding heat input and or certain types of additives. They are lower in cost and …

A Review of the Effects of Filler Rod on Bimetallic Weld Joint
Abstract: FSW (Friction Stir Welding) is a technology for joining solid-state metals. Welding metal does not melt and recast. Tunnel defects, kissing bonds, cracks, pin holes, and pipping defects are some of the most common in FSW. The defects occur as a result of poor metal mixing and insufficient heat input in the weld nugget zone. Only a small body of literature has focused on filler material and process parameters for …
