Abstract

The use of friction stir welding (FSW) process in welding the β-titanium alloy, Timetal 21S, was studied. The Timetal 21S, belongs to the meta-stable β family of alloys. It was shown that a shear texture was observed in all of the welds at the nugget center. It was observed that by suitable processing, the alloy can be produced with a single phase BCC crystal structure.
