This work describes development done for inertia welds of 1100 aluminum of approximately an H-18 work hardened condition, to Type 316 stainless steel. The welding was done with a Caterpillar Model 90 inertia welding machine. Rod diameters were 0.625 inch for the stainless steel and 1.00 inch for the aluminum. A broad range of weld parameters, as well as various steel surface geometries, were investigated for this work.
