In the present work, dissimilar butt joints between a low-Ni, medium-Mn austenitic stainless steel, M-Mn SS, and a Ni-Cr austenitic stainless steel, Ni-Cr SS, were processed by utilizing the gas tungsten arc welding (GTAW) technique at different heat inputs. A filler metal of ER308 was employed in the welding process. The filler yields 480 MPa, which is equivalent to the yield strength of M-Mn SS. The microstructural analysis and mechanical performance (i.e., tensile strength and hardness properties) of the concerned joints were studied by using an optical microscope and uniaxial tensile tests, respectively. The results revealed that a duplex structure from austenite matrix and delta ferrite is promoted in the fusion zone (FZ) of the dissimilar joints processed with low and high energy inputs (0.486 kJ/mm and 0.558 kJ/mm). The FZ of the specimens welded at high heat input exhibited the lowest hardness value (151.2 HV) in comparison to heat affected zone (HAZ) (166.3 HV). Moreover, the joints exhibited a low tensile strength of 610 MPa. The achieved strength is significantly lower than the strengths of the base metals (BMs) M-Mn SS and Ni-Cr SS. This is mainly attributed to the inhomogeneous dendritic structure of the FZ with Cr-carbides precipitation.

Dissimilar joint commonly applied on pressure vessel application in power plan field as joining between the tank and the stanchion of pressure vessel. This paper presents the investigations carried out to study the influence of groove angles and filler metals on 304L Stainless Steel to AISI 1040 Carbon Steel dissimilar joints. Gas Tungsten Arc Welding with 120 A of current was used on this research, joined the two different metals. The 30°, 45°, and 60° were used in this welding as parameters of V-groove angles. ER 308L-16 filler metal of stainless steel and ER 70S-6 filler metal of carbon steel were used as filler metals. Tensile test was conducted to obtain tensile strength of joint and to analysis of the effect of the welding parameters to the mechanical properties. The highest tensile strength was obtained from the 60° groove angle using ER 308L-16 filler metal of 614.54 MPa. In the other hand, 45° groove angle using ER 70S-6 filler metal obtained the lowest tensile strength of 578.66 MPa. The joining process of dissimilar welding using ER 308L-16 filler metal, filler metal for stainless steel, has obtained the highest tensile strength with wider groove angle as well.
