Aluminum Bronze A1 GMAW (MIG) Welding Alloy

Aluminum bronze A1 GMAW (MIG) wire is designed to weld overlays on shafts, propellers, housings, couplings, bushings, valve seats, pumps and other surfaces needing a bronze wearing surface. It is iron-free and is often used to protect parts exposed to salt water and certain acidic conditions. A1 aluminum bronze is not recommended for joining. Conforms to ANSI/AWS A5.7 & ASME SFA 5.7 ERCuAl-A1.
