    Alloy Weld 4643

    Uploaded by

    bastosgabi
    Alloy 4643 is a heat treatable welding filler wire primarily composed of silicon and magnesium. It is applicable for welding heavy sections of aluminum alloys 6061, 6063, 6070, and 6071 when multiple weld passes are used and dilution of the base metal is negligible. Post weld heat treatment can develop 90% of the tensile strength of the unwelded base metal. Alloy 4643 has very good corrosion resistance and weldability similar to alloy 4043.

    ALLOY CHARACTERISTICS
    A PRIMARY USE FOR ALLOY 4643 IS IN THE WELDING OF HEAVY SECTIONS OF CERTAIN ALUMINUM ALLOYS
    WHEN MULTIPLE WELD PASSES ARE USED AND DILUTION OF THE BASE METAL INTO THE PUDDLE IS
    NEGLIGIBLE. POST WELD SOLUTION HEAT TREATMENT AND ARTIFICIAL AGING MAY DEVELOP 90% OF THE
    TENSILE STRENGTH OF THE UNWELDED BASE METAL IN ALLOYS 6061, 6063, 6070, AND 6071. THIS ALLOY
    COULD ALSO OFFER ADVANTAGES IN BRAZING TYPE APPLICATIONS ON THIN SECTIONS WHERE DILUTION
    RATIOS ARE LOW.
    WELDS MADE WITH ALLOY 4043 OR 4643 FILLER METAL SHOULD HAVE APPROXIMATELY EQUAL
    PERFORMANCE IN THE AS-WELDED CONDITION.
    ALLOY 4643 IS VERY SIMILAR IN WELDABILITY TO 4043. THE WELD CRACKING CHARACTERISTICS, FLOW,
    PRE-CLEANING AND MACHINE SETTINGS ARE THE SAME FOR THIS ALLOY AS FOR 4043. THE CORROSION
    RESISTANCE IS VERY GOOD AND EQUALS OR EXCEEDS ALLOY 4043 IN THE WELD ZONE AND HEAT AFFECTED
    REGIONS.

    1. Metal thickness of or greater for fillet welds sometimes employs a double vee bevel of 50 deg
    or greater included vee with 3/32 to 1/8 inch land thickness on the abutting member.
    2. Electrode consumption given for weld on one side only and based on leg length equal to plate
    thickness.
    3. For 5XXX series electrodes use a welding current in the high side of the range given and an arc
    voltage in the lower portion of the range. 1XXX, 2XXX, and 4XXX series electrodes would use
    the lower currents and higher arc voltages.
    THIS INFORMATION IS BASED ON DATA DEVELOPED UNDER LABORATORY CONDITIONS AND IS DESIGNED AS
    A GUIDELINE ONLY. INDIVIDUAL CONDITIONS, WELDING EQUIPMENT AND ENVIRONMENT CAN AFFECT
    SUGGESTED SETTINGS.
