Aluminum Filler Rod 5183 for Shipbuilding
Marine aluminum welding wire is used for welding filler metal in ship construction or as a conductive metal wire such as submerged arc welding wire, gas shielded welding wire, etc. Or it has both functions at the same time.
The commonly used aluminum filler rods on ships include 5356 and 5183 aluminum-magnesium welding wires, but aluminum-magnesium welding wires are not limited to these two models, but also include 5A06, 5B06, 5556, 5554, 5087, etc.
5356 aluminum welding wire is an aluminum alloy filler metal containing up to 5% magnesium. It can be used for MIG or TIG welding processing. It has good resistance to seawater corrosion and can generally be used in base metals 5050, 5052, 5083, 5356, 5454 and 5456 welding. It is white in color after anodization and has a tensile strength of 290MP.
5183 welding wire is particularly widely used in welding structures of marine vessels such as ships, catamarans, and high-speed ships. The main reason why this alloy is so versatile is that it has a combination of high strength, high corrosion resistance, high bending ability, and high weldability.
The base metals suitable for aluminium 5183 include 5083, 5086, 5456, 5052, 5652 and 5056. It has excellent resistance to seawater corrosion and low temperature performance. The weld seam is white after anodization, which can provide a good color matching for the welded joint. It can be used for MIG or TIG welding processing of spools or longitudinal cuts.
How to choose the right aluminum welding wire
Choosing the right aluminum welding wire is key. Different welding needs require different aluminum welding wires. Here are some key points for choosing the right aluminum welding wire:
1. Determine the type of aluminum or aluminum alloy to be welded
2. Determine required weld strength and hardness
3. Consider the corrosive nature of the work environment and materials
4. Determine appropriate welding methods and equipment
