Purpose: Purpose of this paper is investigate the friction stir welding capability of the EN AW 2024-0 and EN AW 5754-H22 Al alloys are studied, because two aluminium alloys are widely used in the industry and friction stir welding is getting widened to be used to join the aluminium alloys. Design/methodology/approach: Friction stir welding (FSW) is a new solid fhase technique invented and patented for aluminium alloys. EN AW 2024-0 and EN AW 5754-H22 are aluminium alloys can be welded by fusion welding, but many welding problems arises from fusion welding. While the friction stir welding is a solid state welding process, some problems may be prevented. Findings: It is found in the course that these two aluminium alloys can be friction stir welded if fhe welding parameters are carefully selected. Hardness value in weld area for EN AW 2024-0, there is an increase about 10-40 Hv. Because of this is recrystalization and getting smaller grains. For EN AW 5754-H22 there is a decrease of hardness value because of recrystalization. Welding performance of EN AW 2024-0 is reached to 96.6 %. This value is 57 % for EN AW 5754-H22. It is possible to perform dissimilar welding using different aluminium alloys. Elding performance of dissimilar aluminium alloys EN AW 2024-0 and EN AW 5754-H22 is reached a value of 66.39%. Research limitations/implications: Research limitations are that the design of the welding probe which is used in the experiments is changed, the speed of the welding can be improved. The material of the welding probe can be changed. Originality/value: The aluminium alloys EN AW 2024-0 and EN AW 5754-H22 are widely used ones but the friction stir weldability is not investigated so far. It is found that if the welding parameters are carefully selected, these aluminium alloys can be friction stir welded succesfuly.
