MIG WIRE 5183 ALUMINIUM WELDMAX 1.6MM 7KG — Product Description
Premium 5183-Grade Aluminium MIG Welding Wire | 1.6mm | 7kg Spool
WeldMax 5183 Aluminium MIG Welding Wire is a high-performance, magnesium-alloyed filler wire engineered for superior strength, excellent corrosion resistance, and smooth arc characteristics. With a diameter of 1.6mm and supplied on a convenient 7kg spool, this wire is ideal for both professional fabricators and heavy-duty industrial welding applications.
Key Features
- Alloy Grade: ER5183 — an aluminium-magnesium alloy wire offering high tensile strength and excellent resistance to saltwater and marine corrosion
- Diameter: 1.6mm — suited for medium to heavy gauge aluminium sheet and plate
- Spool Weight: 7kg — reduces downtime from frequent spool changes on long production runs
- Smooth, Stable Arc: Precision-drawn and polished for consistent wire feeding with minimal burn-back or birdnesting
- Low Spatter: Clean weld pool control for a professional finish and reduced post-weld cleanup
- High Ductility: Produces welds with good elongation properties, ideal for structures subject to vibration or dynamic loading
