Why will the Henrob 2000 weld aluminum better than a conventional torch?
• A: The lower flame pressure is less likely to blow out the weld puddle. • The mixing chamber reduces the turbulence and oxygen content (almost none) in the welding envelope at the tip of the flame so it acts as a shielding gas. • It does require a flux to break down the oxide layer on the aluminum; the TIG uses a high frequency. • The rods required are standard TIG rods; you must match as closely as possible the alloy of the rods to the alloy of the metal being welded. • NOTE: A special Lens is required to remove or reduce the prevalence of the yellow/orange flare caused by the sodium/fluoride in the flux. • Also due to the characteristics of our flame excessive cleaning and flux is not necessary. • Oily aluminum and used castings e.g. Transmission or motorcycle cases, intake manifolds, irrigation pipe and other aluminum that TIG/MIG welders usually have problems with the cleaning characteristics of our flame usually does it with ease, Preheating is required on materials thicker than
