Detailed Product Description

1100 Alloy

Alloy Characteristics

Alloy 1100 is highly resistant to chemical attack and weathering. It is a relatively soft alloy that is very formable and is used extensively in thin gauge and foil products.  It has good welding characteristics and it is also used as a filler alloy for welding purposes.

A desirable characteristic of the alloy is the bright finishes obtained by anodizing.

4043 Alloy

Alloy Characteristics

Alloy 4043 is one of the oldest and most widely used welding and brazing alloys.  Almigweld and altigweld 4043 can be classified as a general purpose type filler alloy.  The silicon additions result in improved fluidity (wetting action) to make the alloy a preferred choice by welders.  The alloy is less sensitive to weld cracking and produces brighter, almost smut free welds.
