Easyweld makes tough welding jobs simple
Welding aluminium, usually a difficult task requiring expensive equipment and high levels of skill, is fast and straightforward with the revolutionary new Durafix Easyweld aluminium welding rods from Durafix. In addition to aluminium, the rods can also be used to weld almost all other non-ferrous metals and alloys - they can even be used to produce strong welded joints in galvanised steel and between dissimilar non-ferrous metals.
No special equipment is needed to make welds with Easyweld rods - their low working temperature of just 392C means that they can be used in conjunction with almost any ordinary hand-held blow torch.
For the convenience of new users, Durafix offers the rods in the form of inexpensive kits, complete with a high-quality auto- or manual-ignition torch. For users who already have a suitable torch, Easyweld rods can also be purchased separately, in a wide range of pack sizes. Despite their convenience and ease of use, Easyweld rods produce dependable non-porous joints which are stronger than the parent metal, and which are entirely free from slag. The quality and performance of the rods is confirmed by the US Army Engineering Corp, which has approved them under specification number MIL-R-4208 for use in an extensive range of military applications, including the repair of aircraft skins.
