![]() Bill Turner wrote in message ... Is the wire made of aluminum or just used for welding aluminum? Aluminum has a poor reputation for cracking from metal fatigue. Have you tested your wire for fatigue resistance? This will be important when used for quad wires. -- Bill, W6WRT QSLs via LoTW Hi Bill. This stuff is Almigweld alloy welding wire made by Alcotec http://www.alcotec.com/prodline.htm#SPEC I guess I made it sound like it was pure aluminum wire, sorry bout that. A friend tossed me a roll of this stuff leftover from a quad he bought awhile back. Being that this is what I had on hand and that it worked well for him I figured I'd use it too. 73 Paul, K4CVR --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.
