The aim of this work was to determine the effect of selected parameters of friction welding, such as friction pressure and welding speed, on the mechanical properties and microstructure of friction-welded Inconel 713C-32CrMo4 joints. Tensile strength and hardness tests were carried out to determine the mechanical properties of the resulting welded joints. The results of the ultimate tensile strength, hardness, and microstructure were linked to the parameters of the welding process. It was found that the highest tensile strength was 1222 N/mm. There was a significant increase in the hardness value in the thermo-mechanically affected zone for all samples. However, as the friction pressure increased, the zone with the higher hardness value migrated towards the 32CrMo4 material. In all weld tests, the fracture was found on the 32CrMo4 steel side. A distinct band of carbide formation was observed between the thermo-mechanically affected zone and the Inconel 713C base material.
