SÜA - ER5356 - MIG Aluminum Welding Wire - 1 Lb x 0.035'' (4 SPOOLS)

ER5356, commonly referred to as “AlMg5,” is a 5% magnesium aluminum wire used for welding base metals 5050, 5052, 5083, 5356, 5454 and 5457

This MIG wire has become the most widely used aluminum welding wire because of its compatibility with so many different base metals and better corrosion resistance in salt water

Weld deposits have good ductility and higher tensile strength although it is not suitable for temperatures sustained above 150°F (65°C)

Melting range is 1060°F – 1175°F, density is 0.096 lbs/in3 and post anodizing color is white

1 Lb of wire per Spool - Available diameters: 0.030", 0.035" and 0.045" - Available Spool Quantities 1, 2, 4 and 6-Pack. Select your choice from the menu.

ER5356 - WIRE - MIG (GMAW) – ALUMINUM AWS A5.10 Welding Positions: All, except vertical down INTRODUCTION: This is one of the most commonly used aluminum welding alloy.
