Introduction
Our Shipbuilding Aluminum Welding Wire series is formulated from high-purity aluminum alloys, primarily the 5XXX series, designed for superior resistance to general corrosion, particularly in harsh marine settings. The wires feature tightly controlled chemical compositions and smooth feeding characteristics necessary for high-integrity welds in large-scale shipbuilding and repair projects. This ensures structural longevity and compliance with international classification society standards.
