In the presented study, AISI 1040 medium carbon steel and AISI 304 austenitic stainless steel parts were joined by friction welding. The welding process was carried out under optimized conditions using statistical approach. Tension tests were applied to welded parts to obtain the strength of the joints. Fatigue properties were additionally obtained experimentally under fluctuated tensile loads. Finally, notch impact tests were applied to the joints. Microstructures using microphotographs were examined in the heat affected zone of welded parts. Hardness variations in welding zone were also obtained. Experimental results were compared with those of previous studies.
