The dissimilar metal joints of have been emerged as a structural material for various industrial applications which provides good combination of mechanical properties like strength, corrosion resistance with lower cost. Selections of joining process for such a material are difficult because of their physical and chemical properties. The stainless steel and mild steel dissimilar material joints are very common structural applications joining of stainless steel and mild steel is very critical because of carbon precipitation and loss of chromium leads to increase in porosity affects the quality of joint leads deteriorate strength. In the present study, stainless steel of grades 202, 304, 310 and 316 were welded with mild steel by Tungsten Inert Gas (TIG) and Metal Inert Gas (MIG) welding processes. The percentage dilutions of joints were calculated and tensile strength of dissimilar metal joints was investigated. The results were compared for different joints made by TIG and MIG welding processes and it was observed that TIG welded dissimilar metal joints have better physical properties than MIG welded joints.
