This detailed product description refers to the high-quality AlSi5 (Aluminum-Silicon) welding wire offered by Wieländer+Schill, specifically developed for gas-shielded arc welding (MIG/MAG) applications. The product is an ideal choice for welding aluminum-silicon alloys where a reliable and durable joint is required.
The Wieländer+Schill AlSi5 welding wire is a special aluminum alloy used in body repair and general metalworking. The wire has a diameter of 1.0 mm and is wound on a practical D200 type plastic spool containing 2 kg net weight. This packaging is ideal for frequent, smaller volume jobs and for ease of handling.
The AlSi5 alloy is excellently suited for welding castings and cast-to-sheet combinations, as well as for joining aluminum alloys with the same or similar composition (e.g., AlSi5, AlSi12). The silicon content improves weldability and reduces the risk of hot cracking in the joint.
This welding wire primarily provides optimal performance in the following areas:
Automotive Industry: Repair of body elements, subframes, and cast parts.
General Mechanical Engineering: Assembly of aluminum structures.
MIG/MAG Welding: Optimized for gas-shielded arc welding processes.
Proper preparation is essential to achieve excellent welding results:
Surface Cleanliness: The surface to be welded must be metallically clean. All oxide layers, grease, oil, and contaminants must be removed before welding.
Heat Treatment: For larger workpieces and material thicknesses greater than 15 mm, preheating the welding area is recommended between 150 °C and 200 °C. This minimizes internal stresses and the formation of cracks.
Shielding Gases: The following shielding gases, compliant with standard EN ISO 14175, can be used with the wire:
TIG Welding: Argon (I1)
MIG Welding: Argon (I1), as well as Argon-Helium mixtures (I3)
The table below summarizes the critical technical parameters of the welding wire, ensuring the user has precise adjustment capabilities.

The product is available in the following packaging:
Part number: 311078
Wire diameter: 1.0 mm
Spool: D200 Plastic spool, 2 kg
Alternative Packaging (Note): The product is also available with a different diameter (1.2 mm) and in a larger, K300 type, 7 kg spool.
For ensuring smooth wire feeding, a special accessory is recommended for the D200 spools:
Product: Centering adapter for D200 wire spool
Part number: 307004
Function: This kit ensures the precise seating of D200 wire spools on the spool mandrel, guaranteeing that the wire can enter the wire feeder straight, thus avoiding bending and feeding problems.
This AlSi5 welding wire is part of the Wieländer+Schill quality welding technology portfolio, resulting from manufacturing processes supported by ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 certifications. The product offers excellent mechanical properties and reliable welding performance for experts in aluminum alloys.
