This is beginner friendly aluminum welding! Aluminum welding rods like these Alumiweld Rods from Harbor Freight make welding aluminum without a Tig Welder or Mig Welder possible. This system is affordable and the process is simple. These aluminum welding rods make it possible to to braze weld aluminum easily braze weld aluminum just like I did in the video!
There are several brands of these aluminum welding rods but in this video I used the Alumiweld rods from Harbor Freight. The price for these aluminum rods is under $20 which makes them very affordable. Welding aluminum with these rods requires practice to be sure. I found that there are three key factors for success with brazing aluminum. The first is surface preparation. Sanding, wire brushing and a thorough cleaning with a solvent like acetone or alcohol is a critical foundation to the process. The second key is stabilizing the piece to be welded. Clamping and immobilizing the aluminum that you are working on will assist in heat flexing. The third factor that I found was temperature. The Alumiweld rods have a working temperature of 730° which oddly enough is the same max temperature of MAP gas. The max temperature of propane is about 600°, so I chose to use MAP. I found that evenly heating the parent metal along the entire length of the weld worked best for me. I also notice more success when I didn't "rush" the temperature/process.
