As a result of the experiments carried out, the samples were subjected to metallographic examination, hardness measurements, tensile test and bending test. As a result of the examinations carried out, changes in welding performances were determined with the change of pin profiles. As a result of these changes, it was determined that the pin profile suitable for the applied welding parameters was pyramid. It has been concluded that in the use of triangular profile pins, the welding parameters in question should be higher, and the most important reason for this is that the stir zone is larger.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessAl 6061 T6Friction Stir WeldingPin ProfilesStir ZoneWelding ParametersMechanical-PropertiesAluminum-AlloyHeat-TreatmentShielding GasMicrostructureOptimizationParametersArticle148110Q2147465WOS:001052644300001N/A
