Friction Stir Processing (FSP) is a newly developed method used these days for the fabrication of different metal matrix composites. Present work,is an demonstration of magnesium base metal matrix composite prepared by FSP. An array of holes of diameter 2mm and depth of 4 mm were prepared in a 7 mm thick AZ61 magnesium alloy plates completely filled with TiC particles. One ,two and Three passes of FSP was carried with a threaded cylindrical tool using a tool rotational speed of 800 and 1200 rpm, traverse speed of 60 and 100 mm/min. Micro structural and micro hardness properties have been studied. It has been observed that TiC particles were perfectly distributed in the base metal with no defect formation.

Keywords: Friction stir processing, scanning electron microscopy, Vicker hardness.
