5356 aluminum MIG welding alloy is an all-position, non-heat treatable MIG wire used to weld the 5XXX series alloys when 40,000 psi tensile strength is not a requirement. Alloy 5356 is a very good all-purpose wire. It is the most widely used of all aluminum filler metals. Common applications are welding of boats/ships, bicycles, trucks, pressure vessels and automotive parts.
Features
- Used mainly for welding aluminum of like composition. This type is also useful if color match is important after anodizing.
- Should be considered for welding 5000 series aluminum base metals.
- Optimized To Reduce Fumes & shaved for ultimate cleanliness of wire.
- 5359 offers excellent corrosion resistance when exposed to salt water
- AWS Classification A5.13
- 5356 aluminum/silicon GMAW (MIG) welding alloy
- Designed for welding heat treatable base alloys, specifically 6XXX series alloys
- Lower melting point and more fluidity than 5XXX series filler alloys
- Low sensitivity to weld cracking with 6XXX series base alloys
- Suitable for sustained elevated temperature service, i.e. above 150°F (65°C)
- All position, except vertical down welding
- Gray (post anodized) color
Applications
- Automotive bumpers and supports
- Structural frames in the shipbuilding industry
- Formed truck panels
- Railing Industry
- Power Industry
- Trailer Manufacturing
