About Harris Alloy 26 Aluminum

E4043 is an AWS A5.3 aluminum SMAW electrode with a ~5% silicon aluminum core and a moisture-resistant flux coating, designed for stick welding of 1100, 3003, 5052, and 6061 aluminum alloys and aluminum castings. The Si addition lowers melt temperature and improves fluidity. Aluminum SMAW has largely been displaced by GMAW and GTAW for production work but remains valuable for field repair where shielding gas is not available. Runs DC+ only in the flat position; preheat 300-400 deg F is required on thicker sections to avoid lack of fusion.
