Abstract Friction weldability of Mg based alloys has been worldwide discussed. Within this context the aim of this study was to investigate rotational friction welding of an Aluminum‐Rare Earth based high creep resistance Mg alloy AE42HP from the viewpoint of thermo cycle‐microstructure‐performance relationships to evaluate the potential use of FW in joining modern Mg‐alloys.
