TIG-5356 are used to weld aluminum magnesium basemetal alloys with a maximum of 5% Mg. It has relatively high shear strength. The 5xxx alloy base matal, welded with TIG-5356, with a
weld pool chemistry greater than 3% Mg and service temperatures in excess of 65๐C are
susceptible to stress corrosion cracking.
Materials to be welded: AL Mg3, Al Mg5, Al Mg Mn, Al Zn Mg1 Si Cu, Al Mg Si0.7
