During laser overlap welding of galvanized steel sheets, explosion of weld pool by the high pressure zinc vapor induces weld defects like porosity and blowhole. In this study, laser 2-pass welding was implemented to prevent the weld defects. Through the 1st pass welding, zinc layers on the faying surfaces were removed when proper heat input was applied. Excessive heat input could result in explosion even during the 1st pass welding and insufficient heat input could not remove enough region of zinc layer for the 2nd pass welding. Coating weights of and were considered and for both cases sound welds without weld defects could be achieved. In spite of 2-pass welding, softening of weld and heat affected zone was not observed and Zn coating was not diluted into the weld metal.
