Features:
- ER5356 is a 5xxx series aluminium alloy filler metal with about 5% magnesium, along with additions of Mn, Ti, and Cr for enhanced properties.
- It offers high shear strength , excellent corrosion resistance (especially in salt water), high ductility, and toughness.
- A significant limitation is its unsuitability for service temperatures exceeding 66°C due to the forma on of brittle grain boundary precipitates.
- Used for welding components like hulls, decks, and masts due to its superior resistance to salt water.
- Found in the fabrication of truck bodies, trailers, and automotive parts.
