DETAILS
Features/Characteristics
SM ER 5183 MIG & TIG contains magnesium close to 5%, and it has the higher manganese content with aluminium-magnesium; hence they have great working abilities. They come with good corrosion resistance, heat resistance, high strength, good flexibility. After welding, the ER5183 MIG & TIG is still white and can easily provide good colour for the welded joints. The composition of ER 5183 makes it suitable for welding aluminium alloys with magnesium, such as 5083, 5052, and 5456.
