DETAILS
SuperGlaze 5356 is Aluminum Magnesium alloy very commonly used for higher strength welding of 5XXX and 6XXX base materials. It has higher columnar strength and uses less amperage for the same WFS as 4XXX filler metals.
Features
- General purpose filler alloy for 5XXX and 6XXX series alloys
- The most widely used welding alloy
- High strength filler metal
Welding Positions
- All except vertical down
Shielding Gas
- 100% Argon Argon / Helium Mixtures Flow Rate: 30 - 50 CFH
