Extruded
Flux Coating: Aufhauser offers the welding industry a superior
D.C. aluminum electrode. "Al-43" is designed for
D.C. (reverse polarity) arc welding of aluminum and aluminum
alloys. This electrode produces a smooth weld bead on flat,
fillet or vertical jobs. Arc action has very low spatter
and is smooth. Slag is easily removed.

Tests
and Inspections:
Samples
from every batch of electrodes are submitted to vigorous
tests before delivery. Stringent inspection is carried
out on all material used and also all stages of manufacture.

Procedure:
For flat, horizontal or vertical, DC reverse polarity only
clean weldment. Preheat 400 degrees to 600 degrees F. Recommended
on heavy weldments due to high melting rate of aluminum.
