The aim of this study is to evaluate the possibility of using the linear friction welding (LFW) technique to produce sound joints on a 2124Al/25vol.%SiCpcomposite. The MMC joints were subjected to microstructural and mechanical characterization, including hardness, tensile and fatigue tests, without any post-weld heat treatment. The microstructural analyses showed substantially defect-free joints, with a uniform particle distribution in the central zone and a relevant plastic flow of the aluminium matrix alloy. The hardness decrease in the welded zone was approximately 10% in respect to the base material. The joint efficiency was higher than 80%, both in respect to the ultimate tensile strength and fatigue strength at 107cycles. S–N probability curves were calculated using the maximum likelihood method. Generally, the fracture occurred in the Thermo-Mechanically Affected Zone (TMAZ), with a relevant reduction in the elongation to failure.
