45889 Aluminum DC Flux Coated Specialty Rod, 1/8-Inch, 1/2-Pound

The media could not be loaded. Good build up, lots of molten and solidified slagI cleaned the slag completely after every passthe finished welds machined well and holds threads well

Good Product

I ran it at 65 amps on DC neg, worked great. Really helps if you clean the rod tip at each start.

Works great with dc welder

I could not get it to do anything. It was all I could do to get it to stick! would not recommend.

These are okay if you have some relatively thick aluminum, you don't care what it looks like when you are done, you are desperate, and it is a full moon and werewolves are beating down the door that can only be killed by whatever aluminum thing you think you can repair in the dead of night with a stick welder. Otherwise, based on my experience, I would recommend trying something else.Did I add that I have successfully repaired boat props with a similar product, but it's been years and I don't really think it was worth it then either.

The rod delivered soon and work well.

Maybe I didnt use it properly but I could not get it to work. It just doesnt stick to the aluminium surface and all I see is ball of rod rolling on surface. No youtube instruction available also.
