Tips for Special Materials
Magnesium can be soldered, but soldering
is generally only used for filling small surface defects
in castings or small dents in sheets.
Magnesium can easily be joined with Aladdin’s AZ61A or
AZ92A Magnesium rod or wire, or Aladdin 3-in-1 Rod with
Aladdin’s #75 Magnesium Welding Flux.
Use Aladdin’s AZ61A for:
- Structural shapes
- Sheet and Castings
- Shipping dock boards
- Motor housings
Use Aladdin’s AZ92A for:
- Aircraft parts
- Exotic magnesium metals
- non-ferrous alloys (but not aluminum or magnesium!)
- for stainless steel, use Aladdin #3 Soft Soldering Flux; for all other common soldering, use Aladdin #2 Low Acid All-Purpose Flux.
- to neutralize #2 and #3 flux, use a baking soda and water solution.
Immediately following the soldering process, remove
any flux residue to prevent staining or corrosion by
cleaning the joint with a mix of water and soap, ammonia,
soda or commercial detergent.
