This study deals with the friction welding of SKH55 and SM45C; The friction time was variable conditions under the conditions of spindle revolution 2,000rpm, friction pressure of 190MPa, upset pressure of 270MPa and upset time of 2.0 seconds. Under these conditions, the microstructure of weld interface, tensile fracture surface and mechanical tests were studied, and so the results were as follows. 1. When the friction time is 1.0 seconds, the tensile strength of friction welds was 926MPa, which is around as much as 84% of the tensile strength of base metal(SKH55), the bending strength of friction welds was 1,542MPa, which is around as much as 80% of the bending strength of base metal(SKH55), the shear strength of friction welds was 519MPa, which is around as much as 70% of the shear strength of base metal(SKH55). 2 According to the hardness test, the hardness distribution of the weld interface was formed from 964Hv to 254Hv. HAZ(Heat Affected Zone) was formed from the weld interface to 1.5mm of SKH55 and 2mm of SM45C.
