A new design of the welding tool for friction-stir welding (FSW) was proposed. The main idea was in using of a hemispherical tool probe. Such a tool is very simple (and cost-effective) in fabrication and provides excellent mixing of the material during FSW, thus avoiding welding defects. In this work, the feasibility of this tool for joining of Al-Mg-Mn-Zr alloy and its effect on the microstructure and mechanical properties of the produced welds were studied.
