Aluminum Welding Wire

1100 Alloy Alloy Characteristics Alloy 1100 is highly resistanttochemical attack and weathering. It is arelatively soft alloy that is very formable and is used extensively in thin gauge and foil products. It has good welding characteristics and it is also used as a filler alloy for welding purposes. A desirable characteristic of the alloy is the bright finishes obtained by anodizing. Features Non-Heat treatable ISO designation Al99.0Cu Principle alloying elements: Copper Applicable specifications: ANSI/AWS A5.10 (ER & R), ASTM B316, QQ-A-430, AMS 4102 Typical Applications Welding Filler Wire Heat Exchangers Food Handling Equipment Rivets Tie Wire Metallizing 4043 Alloy Alloy Characteristics Alloy 4043 is one of the oldest and most widely used welding and brazing alloys. Almigweld and altigweld 4043 can be classified as a general purpose type filler alloy. The silicon additions result in improved fluidity (wetting action) to make the alloy a preferred choice by welders. The alloy is less sensitive to weld cracking and produces brighter, almost smut free welds.
