Classification  
EN ISO 18273 S Al 4043A (AlSi5(A))
Material No. 3.2245
AWS A 5-10 ER 4043
JIS Z3232 A4043
Remarks

This alloy is particularly used to prevent solidification cracks in connection with high dilution and clamp conditions. Anodizing gives dark colours and is not recommended. The weld pool is very fluid.
