Aluminum Welder East Peoria IL

Not only do we come to you, we offer the highest-quality welding in the area. Here are some of the reasons to choose us for your mobile welding needs:

• One of the most crucial steps in aluminum welding is the preparation of the material. Aluminum forms an oxide layer on its surface, which has a much higher melting point than the aluminum itself. This oxide layer must be thoroughly removed before welding, typically using a stainless steel brush or through chemical cleaning. You can count on us to ensure the aluminum surface is free from contaminants, dirt, grease or oils, which can affect the integrity of the weld.
• We have a deep understanding of how aluminum behaves under heat. There are several welding techniques used for aluminum, but the most common are Tungsten Inert Gas (TIG) and Metal Inert Gas (MIG) welding. Our skilled welders know when to use TIG or MIG based on the thickness and type of aluminum alloy being welded.
• You can expect high quality from us. A key indicator of a high-quality weld is consistency in appearance. For aluminum, the weld bead should be smooth, uniform and free of cracks, holes or any signs of overheating. Poor welds will often show signs of porosity (tiny holes in the weld) due to improper shielding from the inert gas or inadequate material preparation.
• We control the welding conditions. A good aluminum weld should have a uniform “stacked dime” appearance, meaning the weld bead looks like a stack of coins. This indicates that the welder maintained proper speed and heat control throughout the process.
