Aluminium Alu 1050 Tig Filler Welding Rods

£4.99 – £54.99

Aluminium Alu 1050 Tig Filler Welding Rods – High-purity aluminum TIG filler rods with minimum 99.5% aluminum content for exceptional thermal and electrical conductivity. With outstanding fluidity and excellent oxide cleaning action, these rods deliver bright, clean welds with minimal porosity and good colour matching on commercially pure aluminum. Ideal for general fabrication, food industry equipment, chemical tanks, and electrical applications. Provides superior wetting characteristics and ease of use, making them perfect for both professional fabricators and skilled hobbyists working with pure aluminum materials requiring excellent corrosion resistance and high conductivity.

Trade Packs – 1kg, 2.5kg and 5kg bundles are original 1000mm (1 meter in length) and not cut down.
