Reply:There are stick welding rods made for aluminum which would be the only way to weld aluminum without gas that I am aware of.Of course, those stick aluminum rods are a unique experience unto themselves.  Some love em - some hate em.  Either way, the material thickness that they are usable on is a limiting a factor.  Welding Web poster "Rick V" did some research with aluminum stick rods a couple years back contained in about 2 to 3 different threads that makes for some good reading if you do some searching.
Reply:The 3/32 are really too soft to stick weld with,  get the 1/8th if you have to use them.   Definitely not an option for thin aluminum.    Also consider zinc rod with propane torch  Sent from my SCH-I545 using TapatalkTiger Sales:  AHP Distributor    www.tigersalesco.comAHP200x; AHP 160ST; MM350P,  Spoolmatic 30A; Everlast PowerTig 185; Thermal Dynamics 60i plasma.  For Sale:  Cobra Mig 250 w/ Push-pull gun.  Lincoln Wirematic 250
