4xxx Series Aluminium

4xxx Series Aluminium Alloys feature silicon as their main alloying element. The silicon content ranges from 1.4% to around 13%, which serves to increase the strength of 4xxx series alloys correlative to the silicon addition, at the expense of ductility.

​

These alloys have good mechanical strength, corrosion resistance similar to that of 3xxx series, decent machinability when an oil-based lubricant is used, and very good weldability

​

4xxx Series Alloys are used to create high-performance race car components including pistons, engine components, and chassis components, whilst also being a family synonymous for creating welding rods and brazing plates.
