Abstract

See full text

A method of manufacturing a liquid-cooled jacket, includes a preparation step which includes placing a sealing body on a stepped portion to allow a step side surface and a sealing-body side surface of the sealing body to butt each other, and a primary joining step which includes allowing a primary joining rotary tool to move once around the sealing body, while moving the rotary tool along a butted portion formed in the preparation step, to carry out friction stir welding. The primary joining step includes employing the primary joining rotary tool provided with a stirring pin having a length dimension greater than a thickness dimension of the sealing body, and carrying out friction stirring with only the stirring pin being brought into contact with a jacket body and the sealing body.
