Aluminium alloys generally has low weldability by traditional fusion welding process. The development of the Friction Stir Welding (FSW) has provided an alternative improved way of producing aluminium joints, in a faster and reliable manner. FSW process has several advantages, in particular the possibility to weld dissimilar aluminium alloys. This study focuses on the behavior of tensile strength of dissimilar joints of AA6351-T6 alloy to AA5083-H111 alloy produced by friction stir welding was analysed. Five different tool pin profile such as Straight Square (SS), Tapered Square (TS), Straight Hexagon (SH), Straight Octagon (SO) and Tapered Octagon (TO) with three different axial force (1tonne, 1.5tonne, 2 tonne) have been used to weld the joints. The effect of pin profiles and axial force on tensile properties and material flow behaviour of the joint was analyzed and it was found that the straight square pin profile with 1.5 tonne produced better tensile strength then other tool pin profile and axial force.
