Then, the friction weld joints are completed.

The joining section (9) is formed by friction welding.

The workpieces are thus friction welded in the area of the joint.

The other one of the parts to be welded on is then attached to the resulting integral unit by friction welding.

The friction stir weld zone formed during friction stir welding is generally harder and more wear resistant that the article body.

The threaded fastener and the washer can be used as a guide for the friction stir weld.

The invention also relates to a method for friction-stir welding using the aforementioned device.

So we utilized a process called friction-stir welding.

So we utilized a process called friction‑stir welding.

The use of the thin wall connecting tube and the friction welding process allow the friction weld to be located immediately adjacent a bore extending through the eye.

The present invention relates to a friction welded product for rock drilling, including a first component (25) and a second component (22) of parent material joined by a friction weld (27).

The present invention relates to a friction welded product for rock drilling, including a first component (25) and a second component (22) of parent material joined by a friction weld (27).

Friction stir welding is exclusive to CRIQ and available across Canada.

Consistent with the more conventional methods of friction welding, which have been practiced since the early 1950s, the weld is made in the solid phase, that is, no melting is involved.

Then, after initiating the weld joint between the central support post and the opposite surface, the method continues by then initiating a friction weld joint between aligned free ends of the ribs.
