Applications
Joining and surfacing of wrought and cast alloys of the types Al-Si, Al-Mg-Si, and Al-Si-Mg-Cu.
Welding Instructions
- Preparation: Clean the area to be welded thoroughly.
- Preheating: It is advisable to preheat larger parts and castings to 150–200 °C.
- Technique: Guide the electrode vertically with a very short arc.
