Aluminum Alloy Wire for Heat Exchanger

-- Steady & Reliable Manufacturer --

Intro

Precision aluminum filler wire designed for the high-volume, automated joining of thin-walled aluminum tubes and fins in the manufacturing of heat exchangers and HVAC/R coils.

Introduction

The construction of modern heat exchangers (used in automotive HVAC, refrigeration, and industrial cooling) requires filler metal that delivers precise heat control and excellent flow characteristics on thin-gauge materials. Our wire for this application is typically small in diameter (0.8mm-1.2mm) and based on Al-Si alloys like ER4043, which are optimized for low-amperage, high-speed welding. The wire features superior cleanliness to minimize porosity and ensure leak-tight joints, which is crucial for pressure-containing heat exchange systems.

Applications

  • Robotic welding of automotive radiators and condensers.

  • Assembly and repair of aluminum evaporator and condenser coils for HVAC/R units.

  • Joining of micro-channel plates and tubing in specialized industrial heat recovery systems.

  • Brazing/welding repairs on aluminum HVAC/R systems where low-temperature flow is critical.

FAQ

  • Q: Why is ER4043 often preferred over ER5356 for heat exchangers?
  • A: ER4043 (Al-Si) has a lower melting temperature and superior fluidity, which is ideal for welding thin-gauge components and cast aluminum parts, minimizing the risk of burn-through.
  • Q: How do you prevent porosity in wire used for pressure-critical welds?
  • A: We utilize multi-stage chemical cleaning, rigorous deoxidation during production, and immediate vacuum/moisture-proof sealing to minimize surface oxides and trapped moisture (a source of hydrogen porosity).
