Harris Alloy 26 Aluminum Stick Electrode, 1/8″, 5 lb Tube
Harris® 26 aluminum alloy electrode features a precise combination of core alloy and coating, providing high speed deposition of dense, machinable welds. It is widely used on sheets, tubes and extrusions. Also suited for torch applications.
Features
- Produces strong, porosity-free welds without excessive spatter or fuming
- Precise combination of cored wire and coating, providing high speed deposition of dense welds
- Good corrosion resistance
- Good electrical conductivity
- Silver color is a good match to aluminum
- On heavy sections, joints should be beveled to form a 60◦ to 75◦ vee
- pre-heat heavy sections to 500◦F (260◦C) to flatten bead and reduce amount of amperage required
- Widely used on sheet metals, tubes and extrusions for thicknesses of 1/8 in. (3.2 mm) or more
- Typical applications include joining aluminum alloys (sheets, plates, castings and extrusions) with thicknesses of 1/8 in. (3.18mm) or more
- Used on torch applications
