Friction Welded Insert and Processes for Inserting the Insert into a Substrate
A method for attaching an insert to a substrate includes: rubbing the insert against the substrate; forming a heat-affected zone in the substrate; forming plasticized substrate material from friction resulting from the rubbing; moving the insert to a first depth in the heat-affected zone in the substrate; moving the insert to a second depth in the heat-affected zone in the substrate where the first depth is deeper than the second depth; flowing the plasticized material against the insert; and releasing the insert.
