Use
Your Arc Welder for Welding Aluminum!
Now
you can weld aluminum anywhere you arc weld, even in poor conditions, without the
need for a MIG or TIG torch, special welding wire, hoses, regulators, or expensive
and heavy gas bottles.
These
unique aluminum alloy welding rods let you weld and fill all cast, wrought and extruded
aluminum and aluminum alloys, working in all positions, with a high quality high
tensile strength (34,000 lb. / 18% elongation) aluminum alloy using only your arc
welder! (They can also be used with a conventional oxyacetylene torch for gas welding
aluminum!)
Use
these special aluminum welding rods for welding repairing cracks and building up
missing sections of:
- Aluminum
sheet metal
- Truck
beds, bodies, and frames,
- Loading
ramps and docks,
- Engine
and motor blocks,
- Machine
bases and supports,
- Pipe
railings, banisters, stairs, diamond plate,
- Transmission
housings and gear boxes,
- Irrigation
piping,
- Bus
bars, electrical switch boxes and mounts.

Welding Techniques:
OK
for welding in flat, horizontal and vertical applications.
Clean
weld area by removing oil and grease and by wire brushing and/or sanding/grinding
the immediate weld area just prior to welding. Chamfer edges of plated to be joined
and open up/chamfer cracks and/or holes to be filled. Preheat heavy sections broadly.
In thick to thin joining, preheat heavier member. For multi-pass work, it might be
necessary to reduce amperage setting as base metal increases in temperature.
A
close to medium arc should be maintained. Feed electrode quickly and move fast. When
picking up each bead, weld into the previous crater before continuing.
Upon
cooling, slag/flux can easily be removed by chipping/brushing/sanding/grinding.
Expect
best results using motor driven welding equipment with generators with DC rectified
DC output.
