EN 573-3: E AlSi12 DIN 1732: EL-Al Si12
FEATURES & APPLICATIONS: For arc welding aluminums alloyed with copper, silicon, and magnesium. Also excellent for joining dissimilar grades of aluminum. 12% Silicon aluminum arc welding electrode with exclusive self lifting slag. Other aluminum grades such as Al 99, Al Mn, etc. are also available. Unique self lifting slag. Pure white long shelf life extruded flux coating outlasts conventional products in moisture resistance. Can be manufactured in a variety of custom colors. Available in hermetically sealed PURE ALUMINUM pull ring cans or vacuum packed foil bags for extended shelf life. Also available in TIG form as item code 6047, in MIG form as item code 7091 and as a bare.
