FSSW is a solid state joining method gained its significance as an alternate welding technique in the in electrical, electronic and automobile industries that used FSW welding. FSSW can be used to welding dissimilar joints of material with variation in metallurgical and mechanical characteristics. In this paper, dissimilar welding joints of aluminum alloys (5052) and pure copper (10100) with a thickness of 1.67 mm were welded by FSSW. The variation of rotational speed, dwell time and filler content have been used. The welding joints has been examined by tensile shear test. The scanning electron microscope SEM and X-ray diffraction are used to investigate the hook and intermixing layer characteristics. It was found the best welding condition is (1400 rpm) and (30 sec) which the joint is possess the tensile shear force (3340 N). Adding ZnO filler led to increase the thickness of the copper hook, and expanding the stir zone (weld width bond). Joints with V2-ZnO have highest thickness of intermixing layer (IM), length of weld width bond and best tensile shear force (4300 N).
