Commonly referred to as “AlSi5", has a 5% silicon and is the oldest and one of the most widely used aluminum welding wires for general purpose applications.
Usually 100% Argon, Helium or mix.
The silicon additions result in improved fluidity to make the alloy a preferred choice by welders. Less sensitive to weld cracking and produces brighter.
Welding Wire ER4043 can use where base metal require thermal treatment. It also can be used on weld forge and casting materials.
It can be used to weld various grades of aluminum, 3003, 3004, 5052, 6061, 6063, and casing alloys 43, 355, 356, and 214.
