WELDING APPLICATIONS

Suitable for welding duralumin, cast and wrought alloys 6063 (H9), 6061 (H20) and 6082(H30), as well as other ‘4 series’ aluminium’s. The resulting weld will discolour if anodised. Pre-heating up to 120ºC may be necessary, subject to material size and thickness. Wire brushing between passes is recommended, to remove build up of surface oxides.

Ensure that the parent metal surface is cleaned and fully degreased prior to welding. Clean joints with a stainless steel brush.

Shielding Gas: Argon, Argon/Helium
