TAURUS TIG 5356 is a 95% aluminium, 5% magnesium rod for general purpose welding when 40 000 psi tensile strength is not required. TAURUS TIG 5356 should be used with a zirconated tungsten electrode with pure argon or an argon-helium mixture for thick sections, at a flow rates of 10 – 15 l/min. For oxy-acetylene gas welding, a neutral flame should be used with aluminium welding flux.
APPLICATIONS
Applications in the construction of ships, bulk container, railway and the automotive industries.
