Geka 4043 Aluminium Filler Rods - 2.4mm x 2.5kg
Aluminium wire for welding aluminium alloys with a maximum 2% alloying elements. Including aluminium alloys containing up to 7% Si.
The silicon addition results in improved fluidity (wetting action), making the alloy the preferred choice for welders.
ER 4043 is not sensitive to weld cracking and produces bright, almost smut-free welds. Not recommended for anodizing.
Thicker sections should be preheated to (150°C) prior to welding.
Typically used on many industrial manufacturing sectors, such as automotive, production of mobile equipment and shipbuilding etc.
Typical Base Materials
AlMgSi 0, AlSiMg (A), AlSi 1 MgMn, AlMg1SiCu, 3.3206, 3.3210, 3.2315, 3.3211, EN AW 6060, EN AW 6005A, EN AW 6082, EN AW 6061, EN AC 45000*
