The best type of filler rod to use on Aluminum depends entirely on the type of aluminum to be welded, (ie, the parent metal)
Although just about any aluminum rod will do the trick, There are two main types to consider:
Magnesium alloy and Silica alloy. You will need to find out the chemical composition of the parent metal to choose correctly.
There are also things to consider like rod diameted vs thickness of plate or pipe to be welded..
So if you can be more specific with the Q, I can add more.

Oh, dude, when you rub a rod with nylon, it transfers some of its electrons to the rod, giving it a negative charge. This is because nylon has a higher affinity for electrons than the rod. So yeah, the rod gets all charged up and ready to party with some static electricity.
If I had to choose the best insulator out of steel wool, aluminum foil, cotton and bubble wrap, I would choose the aluminum foil.
yes it is because it traps the coolness inside.
No but it is made of aluminum which is the most prevalent element in the earth.
Yes, you can weld aluminum with a DC TIG welder using pure tungsten electrodes and argon gas as a shielding gas. However, welding aluminum typically requires an AC TIG welder to produce the best results due to the material's high thermal conductivity.
the best way to get a good looking/ strong weld on aluminum is using a tig welder it is also possibles with a mig welder but for best results recommend a tig welder with HF
what kind of tig to use for 606 steel
The best grade of aluminum for TIG welding is typically 5XXX series, specifically 5052, 5083, or 5086. These grades offer good weldability, strength, and corrosion resistance, making them ideal for TIG welding applications.
can weld aluminium with a mig or tig welder
Silicon is added to the tig rods in production. Use a gas weld rod which does not have the silicon and the weld will be full of porosity.
It is called aluminum welding. Aluminum can be TIG welded, the most common method, or oxy-fuel welded, or stick welded, or MIG welded.
Yes, find someone with a tig welder.
It stands for electrode. As opposed to R ( rod) for gas welding or TIG welding. If it carries electrical current it is an electrode.
To calculate the weight of an aluminum rod in inches, you would need to know the density of aluminum (which is about 0.098 lbs/in^3) and the volume of the rod (which can be calculated using its length and diameter). You can then multiply the volume by the density to find the weight of the aluminum rod.
It is called aluminum welding. Aluminum can be TIG welded, the most common method, or oxy-fuel welded, or stick welded, or MIG welded.
Is this a gasoline or diesel powered unit? If so the lag time between striking an arc and establishing an arc makes it difficult to use for TIG. If not, any DC supply can be set up for TIG. Not for aluminum... Check with your welding supplier.
