Abstract
A method of friction welding a piston includes forming a piston body by friction welding an upper crown portion to a lower crown portion. At least one of the upper or lower crown portions is provided with a central support post extending along a central axis. The upper and lower crown portions have annular ribs radially outwardly from the central support post, with the ribs being aligned with one another. The method includes initiating a friction weld joint between a free end of the central support post and a corresponding surface opposite the free end of the central support post. Then, after initiating the weld joint between the central support post and the opposite surface, the method continues by then initiating a friction weld joint between aligned free ends of the ribs. Then, the friction weld joints are completed.
