Abstract

The contribution deals with resistance spot welding of low carbon steel to austenitic CrNi stainless steel. The thickness of welded dissimilar steels was 2 mm. DeltaSpot welding gun with process tape was utilized for welding of the above-mentioned combination of steels. Resistance spot welds were produced under different welding currents. The welding currents used were 7 kA, 7.5 kA and 8 kA, respectively. Optical microscopy, microhardness measurement across the weld joint and EDX analysis across the weld joint interface were used to evaluate the quality of resistance spot welds of dissimilar steels.
