Over traditional processing technologies, friction stir processing (FSP) is an efficient solid state surface modification technique. FSP is a reasonably appealing technique that uses a non-consumable rotating tool with a square pin and shoulder. In this study, the two reinforcement particles of B4C and SiO2 were compacted in a square groove of 1.9mm width and 3mm depth on Al 6063 alloy with different weight ratios. Friction stir processing with a non-consumable tool is used to create Al 6063 surface hybrid composites. The tool is made of high-speed steel hardened to 51HRC and consists of a square probe that rotates at 1200 rpm, 40mm/min, and 8 kN, respectively. The wear resistance of reinforced particles in Al matrix material was assessed using a pin-on-disc tribometer at various loads, and the homogeneity of reinforced particles in Al matrix material was evaluated using a scanning electron microscope (SEM). The results showed that the reinforced particle distribution was uniform, and that multipass FSP achieved grain size refinement of an average size of 8 m. The wear rate varies depending on the applied load and the B4C/SiO2 weight ratio.
