Abstract—This paper presents a systematic approach to develop the Quantitative prediction effect of (FSW) friction stir welding process parameter such as tool rotational speed, welding speed, and axial force on Mechanical Properties of Steel FE410A to know the acceptable limit. The Conducted experi-ments can be predict the moderate process parameter justify the Steel FE410A for friction stir weld-ing in tensile strength and yield stress. Higher and lower speed failure in mechanical properties. Earlier welded samples failed in regions corresponding to the base metal and demonstrated yield and ultimate tensile strengths comparable to those of the base metal for hot rolled mild steel AISI 1018 at travel speed 042 to 1.68 mm/sec. Ultimate tensile strength were measured for friction stir weld of steel FE410A with the help of universal testing machine. Hardness of weld were examined using the Vickers hardness testing machine. Crack propagation is evaluated with the notch tough-ness test using Izod test.
