Welding electrodes are metal wires with baked on chemical coatings. The rod is used to sustain the welding arc and to provide the filler metal required for the joint to be welded. The coating protects the metal from damage, stabilizes the arc, and improves the weld. The diameter of the wire, less the coating, determines the size of the welding rod. This is expressed in fractions of an inch such as 3/32", 1/8", or 5/32." The smaller the diameter means it requires less current and it deposits a smaller amount of filler metal.
1300 is an all position 5% silicon aluminum arc welding electrode with exclusive self-lifting slag. It is used for low temperature production and maintenance welding of cast and wrought aluminum sheets, plates, castings and extrusions. 1300 is widely used for tanks, pipes, appliances, refrigeration equipment, irrigation equipment, automobile parts and parts found in the chemical, food, and laundry industries.
