ER1100—ER1100 rods are for aluminum 1100, 3003, and 5005. Soft and easy to form, they’re often used to weld thin-gauge aluminum and foil. They also resist chemicals and corrosion. Anodize these rods to create a bright finish.

ER4043—ER4043 rods are for aluminum 43, 356, 3003, 3004, 5052, 6061, and 6063.

ER4047—ER4047 rods are for aluminum 43, 356, 3003, 3004, 5052, 6061, and 6063. Choose these rods when leak-tight welds are a must, such as when welding very thin aluminum and products that will hold pressurized liquids or gases. When melted, they flow better than ER4043 rods, so they’ll fill in more of the space between the two pieces of your weld. They also shrink less as they cool, so they’re less likely to distort your weld. Once hardened, they produce a bright finish with little soot. These rods will stand up to prolonged high heat.

ER5183—ER5183 rods are for welding aluminum 5083, 5086, and 5456 to themselves or to 5052, 5652, and 5056. They’re often used to weld marine components and storage tanks.

ER5356—ER5356 rods are for aluminum 5050, 5052, 5083, 5454, 5456, 5457, and 5458. They have excellent corrosion resistance to salt water.

ER5554—ER5554 rods are for aluminum 3004, 5052, 5083, 5086, 5154, and 5456. They’re commonly used in chemical tanks and high-temperature applications up to 150° F.

ER5556—ER5556 rods are for aluminum 5154, 5254, 5454, and 5456. They’re stronger and resist cracking better than other high-strength welding rods for aluminum.
