Aluminium Welding Wire

DETAILS

SuperGlaze 5087 is used where higher tensile strength is required in base metals with up to 5% Mg

Features

  • Designed to meet the tensile strength requirements of high magnesium alloys
  • For base metals with a max. of 5% Mg
  • The presence of Zirconium produces a fine-grained weld metal structure
  • Reduced tendency of solidification cracking in highly restrained welds

Typical Applications

  • Marine
  • Cryogenic Applications
  • Shipbuilding
  • Automotive
  • Railway Industry

Welding Positions

  • All except vertical down

Shielding Gas

  • I1 : Inert gas Ar (100%), I3 : Inert gas Ar+ 0.5-95% He, Flow rate : 14.2-23.6 l/min
