Abstract: Effect of the pin profile on defects of friction stir welded aluminium alloy is investigated. The proposed work is to combine study the effect of post weld heat treatment with tool rotational speed and pin profile on metallurgical &mechanical properties for friction stir welded aluminium alloy joints. Microstructure of the welding zone showed that the tunnel produced by triangle pin has smaller dimensions is compared three pin profile (3 profiles) and for each tool rotation speed. The results of optical microscope indicated that the size of grains resulted from square pin is smaller than the other kinds of tools.
