CLEVELAND Lincoln Electric has introduced SuperGlaze 5356 TM, an engineered aluminum alloy GMAW wire designed specifically for applications in the trailer manufacturing industry. The engineered alloy system provides optimal puddle clarity and arc action, as well as excellent wetting for both semi-automatic and high productivity automatic applications.
Key features, according to the company, include:
Superior Wetting Unparalleled bead profile and appearance are critical for groove and fillet welds.
Enhanced Puddle Clarity and Control Engineered chemical composition outperforms standard ER5356 electrodes, giving the operator unprecedented control.
Maximum Arc Performance and Stability Proprietary manufacturing processes provide a smooth surface finish, making it ideal for automatic applications on formed truck panels.
This aluminum GMAW wire offers excellent performance on high-speed groove welds in formed truck panel applications, as well as robotic fillet welds on trailer tanks, requiring minimal post-weld cleanup, Lincoln Electric says.
SuperGlaze 5356 TM is available in standard diameters of .035-inch, 3/64-inch, and 1/16-inch wound on 1-pound and 20-pound plastic spools, as well as 16-pound steel spools.
