4043 aluminium alloy[1][2][3] is a wrought aluminium alloy with good corrosion resistance typically used as filler material[4][5] for welding of aluminium parts. It contains high amounts of silicon (between 4.5 and 6%) and trace amounts of other metals.[6] It is grey in appearance and is sold as either welding wire or welding rod for TIG/MIG processes.
Chemical composition
Aluminium is the remainder.[4][7][8][9][10]
| Element | Percentage (%) |
|---|---|
| Silicon (Si) | 4.5-6.0 |
| Iron (Fe) | 0.80 |
| Copper (Cu) | 0.30 |
| Manganese (Mn) | 0.05 |
| Magnesium (Mg) | 0.05 |
| Zinc (Zn) | 0.10 |
| Titanium (Ti) | 0.20 |
| Beryllium (Be) | 0.0003 |
