AWS/ASME A 5.3 E 3003
DIN: 1732: EL Si-Al Mn
FEATURES & APPLICATIONS |
For arc welding aluminums alloyed with manganese and magnesium. Also excellent for joining dissimilar grades of aluminum and for seawater applications.
Aluminum arc welding electrode with exclusive self lifting slag. Other aluminum grades such as 12%Si, 5%Si and E 1100, 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.
