What Are TIG Welding Rods?
TIG Rod is used in Tungsten Inert Gas welding, where a non-consumable Tungsten Electrode carries the arc, and TIG Wire is used to supply the filler metal. TIG Wire is a consumable to the process.
These are a pound (1lb) of 36" Aluminum TIG Rods with 1/8" Diameter, ER4043 AWS Classification
Features
- Designed for welding heat treatable base alloys, specifically 6XXX series alloys.
- Lower melting point and more fluidity than the 5XXX series filler alloys
- Low sensitivity to weld cracking with the 6XXX series base alloys.
- All position welding rod
- Often used to for repair welding aluminum/silicon cast alloys such as grades 353/A356.
- Common choice for welding 6061
- Gray (post anodized) color
- Embossed on each end for easy identification after use.
Applications
- Welding 6XXX series alloys
- Repair welding of aluminum/cast alloys such as grades 353/A356
- Automotive components such as frames, drive shafts, parts, truck trailers, bicycle frames
