Questions about this product
- Does this ER5356 wire need shielding gas?
- No. It's self-shielding flux-cored wire, so it runs gasless on a MIG machine. Set your welder to DC electrode positive (reverse polarity) for best results. That makes it handy for field work without a gas bottle.
- What metals can I weld with this wire?
- It's an ER5356 aluminum-magnesium alloy aimed at 5xxx and 6xxx series aluminum. It gives good tensile strength and corrosion resistance on aluminum body panels, frames, and castings. The 1.0mm diameter suits a range of thicknesses.
- How should I store the spool between jobs?
- Keep it dry and sealed, since aluminum flux wire absorbs moisture from humid air. Damp wire causes porosity and a rough arc. The 0.5KG spool is a small, easy-to-store size for occasional projects.
