Characteristics & Applications
This aluminum alloy welding wire with 5% magnesium content is suitable for welding or surfacing of cast and forged aluminum alloys with 5% magnesium content, featuring excellent corrosion resistance. It offers superior welding process performance, with neat weld formation, stable electric arc and minimal spatter. It is applicable for aluminum alloy welding in sports equipment such as bicycles and aluminum skateboards, as well as railway locomotives, aerospace and other related fields.
The multi-strand stranded aluminum alloy welding wire enables the MIG welding arc to rotate with wire feeding, which exerts a real-time stirring effect on the molten pool. This helps eliminate gas pores and slag inclusions in the melt, promotes uniform composition of the weld seam, and reduces welding heat input, thus ensuring high weld quality.
Precautions
1.Adopt open-arc automatic welding, TIG welding or high-power plasma welding. The shielding gas shall be 100% argon (Ar).
2.The welding site must be well shielded from wind to prevent the dissipation of shielding gas and avoid welding defects.
3.Oil stains, oxide films and other contaminants on the welding area must be thoroughly removed.
