To weld ASTM A588 steel, which is a high-strength low-alloy structural steel, a filler metal such as ER70S-6 for MIG welding or E7018 for stick welding is commonly used. These filler metals provide good mechanical properties and ensure compatibility with the base metal's strength and corrosion resistance. It's important to follow proper pre-heat and post-weld heat treatment procedures to maintain the integrity of the weld.
To weld 6060 aluminum, the commonly used filler metal is 4047 or 4045. These filler metals are chosen for their compatibility with the 6060 alloy and provide good mechanical properties and corrosion resistance. It's important to select the appropriate filler metal to ensure a strong and durable weld joint.
You would use 316 as the filler, it is the more pertinent metal of the two.

It is a weld made by melting the edges of the materials to be joined, but adding no filler metal to the weld.
A heterogeneous weld corresponds to a weld that is realized with a different filler alloy than the base metal. At the opposite, a homogeneous weld is realized with same filler alloy than the base metal. Finally, an autogenous weld is done without filler alloy. The joining is realized by melting only the base metal. A.B.
The crown of the weld is the material of the filler metal that projects above the surface of the parts being joined by the weld.
You can use the 308 or 316.
Filler rods are used to add metal to a molten weld pool during the welding process and electrodes actually have electricity running through them to deposit metal into the weld with the exception of TIG welding where the tungsten electrode is used solely for heat.... Hope this was helpful
A form of arc welding in which the electrical energy used to weld the metal is conducted through a wire that is fed from a spool to act as a filler metal.
while doing the welding ,the weld metal should be deposit in the weld pool of parent material and electrode.In some type of welding like TIG ,the electode is not consumable ,it is used to create arc betwenn the electode and the parent material.In such cases,the filler metal or wire is used to join the parent material
Most material being welded to 2205 including itself, should be welded with 2209 filler wire.
Yes, the designation "EW" in filler metal specifications indicates the type of filler metal used for Gas Tungsten Arc Welding (GTAW). Specifically, "E" denotes the electrode, while "W" signifies that the filler metal is specifically designed for welding applications. This designation helps welders select the appropriate filler material based on the base metals being joined and the desired properties of the weld.
