HOT-WELD: Easy welding of Aluminum.
Used by professionals and less experienced welders alike, HOT-WELD aluminum welding rods allow the repair of aluminum motorcycle parts or its derivatives.
For a long time reserved for professionals, the HOT-WELD welding rod makes aluminum welding accessible to all.
This fine melting rod allows good conduction thanks to the metal it contains, it has many qualities.

What can I fix with chopsticks?
Made from quality aluminum alloy, you can braze and repair almost all white metals as well as all other non-ferrous materials with the exception of stainless steel.
- Aluminum
- Aluminum alloys: 1060,1350,3003,3004,3005,5005,5050,6053,6061,6951,7000
- Cast aluminum alloys: 710.0 and 711.0
- The copper
- Zinc-based metals
It is also possible to braze different metals together, such as copper with aluminum or aluminum with galvanized metal.
What equipment is needed?
Aluminum welding rods requires a simple propane torch to assemble the parts.
Thanks to their low working temperature, the baguettes melt at a temperature of 390°C!
The way the aluminum is heated is not important, you just need to reach and maintain 390ºC while working.
For most small jobs, it is possible to use a simple propane torch.

For important parts, you should use a propane and oxygen combination torch to heat evenly
How to properly prepare the part to be welded
Aluminum should be cleaned until the metal is exposed, removing rust (alumina) and any impurities (surface dirt, paint or coatings) The surface of the metal should be clean.
Important : you must use a stainless steel brush, any other material will contaminate your aluminum and prevent adhesion).
It is this cleaning that guarantees optimal welding results.
Carry out your brazing within 10 minutes of brushing , otherwise the alumina will be re-deposited.
The procedure is simple:
-
Start by cleaning your part and remove the alumina (or oxide layer) which could prevent good fusion. To do this, use sandpaper or a wire brush. Using a drill can also help save time.
-
Heat your support to 400°C maximum using a propane blowtorch, with a power suitable for the part to be repaired.
- Use a baguette to weld quality aluminum for a neat and durable result. The rod should be positioned at approximately a 90 degree angle at the solder.
- Rub the solder vigorously at the repair site until the room temperature melts the rod.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION:
The thicker the part , the more difficult it is to heat it , so it is important to use a reasonable heat source. (oxy torch etc.)
Storage : store in a dry and ventilated place / Do not use for Magnesium.
The properties of a special HOT-WELD™ aluminum welding rod
Two parts are distinguished on an aluminum welding rod :
- The aluminum + copper core and the coating which gradually disappears as it liquefies but which plays a vital role in initiation by electrical conduction and protection of the weld pool.
- Welding carried out at low temperature with this type of rod is very resistant over time.
- From 380°C, the copper aluminum that constitutes it melts and immediately fuses with the metal .
- With this process, there is no risk of distortion of the base material. The welded supports do not deform and the resistance to wear and corrosion is very high.
In fact, the safety of the welder is the priority since we do not notice any flux or vapor during welding .
No toxic fumes are released: neither toxin nor gas.

The other advantage of the welding rod for aluminum is that it can be combined with other rods, but this time in copper, brass or bronze.
HOT-WELD™ aluminum welding rods are designed to ensure rapid application to your project with minimal distortion. .
