Aluminum

These days more and more parts are being replaced with aluminum parts. Why? Aluminum is lightweight, durable, and inexpensive in comparison with other metals. The problem is, most repair shops have been trained that it required expensive machinery to weld aluminum properly.

Aluminum melts at 1218^o. Unfortunately, it doesn't turn red like other metals before it reaches the point that it liquifies. If you've ever tried to weld aluminum you know that without an accurate temperature guide, you may end up cleaning your aluminum off the floor. For this reason, most shops in the past have recommended replacing aluminum parts rather than repairing them--which is not only expensive but unnecessary. Fortunately, times have changed.

Our unique line of aluminum welding alloys and fluxes work synergistically to act as an exact temperature guide when welding aluminum. While many aluminum brazing products are sold without flux, we believe the use of flux to be superior for several reasons.

First, it allows the rod to flow better than aluminum rod alone. Any welder knows that flow is an important factor in successfully welding aluminum. Also, our flux acts as an exact temperature guide: it turns from powder to liquid at the exact moment when the rod should be applied. Finally, our flux chemically reacts to clean up the metal and prevents oxidation.

Whether you are welding close to heat sensitive materials and need a super low solder or are welding through dirt, oil, paint or grease -- our welding alloys allow you to weld aluminum quickly, easily and inexpensively with your own torch at less than half the temperature aluminum melts.

Side Note: CAST ALUMINUM CAN ONLY BE REPAIRED WITH SUPER ALLOY 5!
