DETAILS
5356 aluminum TIG (GTAW) welding alloy is an all-position, non-heat treatable alloy used to weld the 5XXX series alloys when 40,000 psi tensile strength is not a requirement. Alloy 5356 is a very good all-purpose alloy. It is the most widely used of all aluminum/silicon filler metals. Common applications are welding of boats/ships, bicycles, trucks, pressure vessels and automotive parts.
