Hobart ER4943 1/8 Aluminum TIG Wire - 10# Box 494312570

Hobart® MaxalTIG® ER4943 1/8" X 36" Aluminum TIG Welding Wire - 10# Wire Box 494312570

10 lb. Box - Genuine Hobart® MaxalTIG® ER4943 1/8 diameter aluminum TIG welding wire is formulated to be used in the same welding applications as ER4043, but with a 25% higher ultimate tensile strength (UTS) and 50% higher yield strength in the "as welded" state. ER4943 has moderate to high strength (35 ksi typical), with a low melting temperature and excellent fluidity. It is well-suited for welding 6XXX series aluminum. It is classified as AWS A5.10 ER4943 and is an all-position solid TIG wire with excellent corrosion resistance and low shrinkage rate.

Applications
Welding 6xxx alloys
Automotive/motorcycle frames
Sports products - scooters/bicycles
General repair and maintenance
