Abstract

The microstructure and properties of high nitrogen stainless steel welded joints under different flash currents were studied by flash butt welding. The results show that, the flash welding parameters have obvious influence on the joint structure and mechanical properties. The joint is organized into symmetrical distribution, and the grains obtained in the interface area are small, mostly pearlite and ferrite. With the increase of flash current, grain coarsening in overheated zone (OZ) and welding zone (WZ) of joint, which was mainly attributed to the increase of welding heat input. Martensite exists on both sides of the weld, in which the hardness reaches the peak. The tensile strength of welded parts can reach up to 97% of the base material, and the fracture is in the form of ductile fracture.
