In earlier days, welding only involves joining two metals of same kind and dissimilar metals were usually joined by fasteners. Friction Stud welding is a true engineering marvel of making welds between dissimilar metals without any melting or fillers involved. The friction stud welding doesn’t involve heat generation from electricity and it is purely based on friction. Besides these facts the friction stud welding has numerous advantage and applications. This paper focuses on the process of stud welding, application and its limitations.
