Weld Wire Wizard
When dealing with specialty alloys, there can be unique welding combinations where guidance is not easily found. The Rolled Alloys Weld Wire Wizard helps to take guesswork out of the equation by allowing you to select any two alloys and see which weld wire is preferred. This tool was created with welders and fabricators in mind to determine the best wire options for their specific alloys or applications.

Specifications
Rolled Alloys supplies weld wire to meet requirements of AMS, AWS, and to aerospace companies such as Pratt & Whitney and GE. Most weld filler is covered by the American Welding Society [AWS] specifications. The Aerospace welding wires are predominately purchased to an AMS spec, whether or not they also have AWS.
Alloy Identification [LCS]
Flag Tagging
Flag tagging is a positive method of identification. The tag has a pressure sensitive adhesive backing and is placed approximately 1.2″ from the end of the rod. Tags are printed with alloy and specifications for identification. Custom tags are available.
