Magnesium alloy wire is a filler material specially designed for welding magnesium and its alloys. Magnesium alloys are widely used in aerospace, automotive, 3C products and other industrial applications due to their light weight, high strength and good corrosion resistance. In these applications, welding, as a method of joining or repairing materials, requires specialised welding wires to achieve good welding results.
Features of magnesium alloy welding wire:
Low melting point: magnesium alloy wires have a lower melting point than steel and aluminium wires and require less heat to weld.
Good fluidity: magnesium wire has good fluidity when melting, which helps weld formation.
Anti-corrosion: Magnesium alloy wire itself has good corrosion resistance.
High thermal conductivity: High thermal conductivity means that the weld needs to dissipate heat quickly to avoid excessive damage to the heat affected zone of the magnesium alloy base material.
