Alcotec ER5356 .035 1 lb MIG Wire
This Alcotec wire is a 1 lb spool of aluminium MIG welding wire classified as AWS ER5356. It has a diameter of .035 in and is wound on a plastic spool for use with compatible wire feeders. The product is new and intended for welding aluminium to aluminium.
Suitable for aluminium fabrication requiring ER5356
This wire suits welders joining aluminium grades such as 5356 using DCEP current in flat, horizontal, overhead or vertical-up positions. It is not for buyers who need a different AWS classification, a different wire diameter or a larger spool weight for extended production runs.
AWS ER5356 classification
The decisive specification is the AWS ER5356 classification combined with an as-welded tensile strength of 46 ksi and a yield strength of 30 ksi with 100 percent argon. These figures determine whether the wire meets the mechanical requirements for the intended aluminium joint.

Questions about this item
What does the 46 ksi tensile strength mean for a finished weld?
The as-welded deposit reaches a tensile strength of 46 ksi, indicating the joint can withstand that level of pulling force before failure.
What does the ER5356 classification cap in terms of shielding gas and polarity?
The wire is classified for MIG welding with 100 percent argon shielding and requires DCEP current designation.
Will the 1 lb plastic spool fit on a standard bench-top wire feeder?
The wire comes on a 1 lb plastic spool with a 0.035 in diameter, a common size for many bench-top MIG feeders.
