6011100473 2.5kg 1.6mm Aluminium Feed Rod

Features and Applications

Aluminium wire for welding aluminium alloys with a maximum 5% Magnesium.

Excellent weldabillity and good mechanical strength, combined with good corrosion resistance in seawater conditions.

AlMg5 is one of the most popular types of aluminium alloys.

ER 5356 can also be used for welding components that need to be anodized.

Thicker sections should be preheated to (150°C) prior to welding.

Typically used on applications in the construction of boats, bicycles, trucks, pressure vessels, storage tanks,

railways and automotive industries etc.
