Aluminum welding wire

AWS ER5183

APPLICATIONS

ER5183 aluminum welding wire is an aluminum alloy welding wire containing nearly 5% magnesium.Magnesium content in welding is required, Welding base materials 5083 and 5654 with higher magnesium content and higher tensile strength (if tensile strength is required 276MPa or higher).It has excellent resistance to seawater corrosion and low temperature, and the weld is white after anodizing, which can provide good color matching for welded joints.
