Weldcote Aluminum - Flux Cored

maintenance-hard-facing-electrodes
  • Flux Cored Aluminum for Maintenance and Repair (Tubular aluminum rod) is an all-purpose brazing/braze welding alloy for oxy-acetylene applications to aluminum. Flux percentage is ideally calculated to optimize performance.
  • Flux Cord Aluminum has a virtually seamless, closed tube, thus protecting the active flux core from the atmosphere. Flux Cored Aluminum is ideal for joining all brazable grades of aluminum sheet, plate, tubing, piping, extrusions, rods and wires. It can be used to repair brazable aluminum castings, filling in holes, building up worn or missing sections and joining cast to wrought parts. General purpose outdoor use on repairing aluminum skids, platforms, loading docks, truck bodies, irrigation piping, fences and railings whenever inert gas welding or shielded metal arc welding is impractical.
  • Procedure: Remove oxides and foreign materal from weld area preferable by mechanical means (scraping, filing, etc). Bevel parts thicker than 3/16" to form a 60 degree.
  • With the oxy/fuel torch adjusted to a slightly carburizing, heat work broadly to about 1000 degrees Fahrenheit. Melt 1/4" of the rod off onto the work piece (the flux will also turn to a liquid); continue heating until alloy flows out.
  • Lower the angle of the torch; continue adding alloy a drop at a time until weld is complete. Allow part to cool slowly. Remove all flux residue with stiff brush and hot water.
