Friction Stir Welding (FSW) is a green novel technology of joining similar or dissimilar materials. During the FSW welding process, non-consumable rotating tool moves on meting surfaces to form a joint. Metals join due to the frictional heat between tool and workpiece. This heat exactly generates between features tool shoulder and upper portion of the workpiece and its intensity depends on parameters like tool geometry, welding parameters, joint type, tool tilt angle, material of tool, etc. This review paper presents the study of the effect of welding parameters like tool shoulder geometry, tool pin probe geometry, diameter of both pin and shoulder, eccentricity of the pin probe on welding of any material. So, finally the optimized tool shoulder and pin diameter has also been identified
