In the present study, a number of joints were fabricated successfully on DH36 marine steel sheet in underwater wet based on friction taper plug welding (FTPW). The influences of the plug and hole geometry parameters combination on the quality of welded joint forming were first investigated. It was found that tapered holes and plugs were the preferred choice and a suitable cone angle range was obtained. Using the preferred hole and plug designed further expand the range of welding parameters to explore process parameters influence on the welding quality. Bonding mechanism and microstructural evolution to FTP welds were investigated with multiple observations. Mechanical properties of the obtained joints were also evaluated with tensile and Charpy impact tests by reference to AWS D3.6 Underwater Welding Code. The best result is found as the joint welded with 7500 rpm and 40 kN which has 535.6 MPa ultimate tensile strength, 22.5 % elongation, and 42.5 J impact energy at bonding line.
