The chapter presents the results of experimental research conducted by the author in the context of the possibility of introducing a change from traditional bonding technology to an unconventional one by means of laser surface treatment. The results of the analysis of the surface condition of the materials selected for this monograph were described, both in the so-called delivery condition (after rolling) and after traditional and laser surface treatment. The chapter also provides a comparison of the energy state of the surface to be glued after mechanical, chemical, and laser treatment. The results of bonding were shown in which static strength on the joint wall was taken as a criterion of evaluation. Additionally, unusual possibilities of lasers used to create specific surface roughness and useful in bonding operations were presented.
