2. 4043 aluminium alloy - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/4043_aluminium_alloy

   4043 aluminium alloy [1] [2] [3] is a wrought aluminium alloy with good corrosion resistance typically used as filler material [4] [5] for welding of aluminium parts. It contains high amounts of silicon (between 4.5 and 6%) and trace amounts of other metals. [6] It is grey in appearance and is sold as either welding wire or welding rod for TIG ...

3. Gas metal arc welding - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gas_metal_arc_welding

   Spray transfer GMAW. Gas metal arc welding (GMAW), sometimes referred to by its subtypes metal inert gas (MIG) and metal active gas (MAG) is a welding process in which an electric arc forms between a consumable MIG wire electrode and the workpiece metal(s), which heats the workpiece metal(s), causing them to fuse (melt and join).

4. Aluminium–silicon alloys - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aluminium–silicon_alloys

   Aluminium-silicon alloys typically contain 3% to 25% silicon content. [1] Casting is the primary use of aluminum-silicon alloys, but they can also be utilized in rapid solidification processes and powder metallurgy. Alloys used by powder metallurgy, rather than casting, may contain even more silicon, up to 50%. [1]

5. Welding - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Welding

   Gas metal arc welding (GMAW), also known as metal inert gas or MIG welding, is a semi-automatic or automatic process that uses a continuous wire feed as an electrode and an inert or semi-inert gas mixture to protect the weld from contamination. Since the electrode is continuous, welding speeds are greater for GMAW than for SMAW.

6. Brazing - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brazing

   Braze welding is the use of a bronze or brass filler rod coated with flux to join steel workpieces. The equipment needed for braze welding is basically identical to the equipment used in brazing. Since braze welding usually requires more heat than brazing, acetylene or methylacetylene-propadiene gas fuel is commonly used. The name comes from ...

7. Shielding gas - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shielding_gas

   Shielding gases are inert or semi-inert gases that are commonly used in several welding processes, most notably gas metal arc welding and gas tungsten arc welding (GMAW and GTAW, more popularly known as MIG (Metal Inert Gas) and TIG (Tungsten Inert Gas), respectively). Their purpose is to protect the weld area from oxygen, and water vapour ...
