By Derek Odom. The first thing necessary for stick welding on aluminum is to have a machine capable of DC (direct current) polarity, and it must be capable of putting out at least 200 amps. If your welder meets these guidelines, you are in business. If you have a 120-volt, 140-amp machine, for instance, there is no way it will ever weld on aluminum.
Dirty Welds: To avoid contaminating a weld push the weld away rather than dragging or pulling the weld towards yourself. Be sure to clean the aluminum properly before welding. Wire Burns (MIG): To avoid wire burns near the contact tip throughout the weld, keep an appropriate distance between the weld and the tip. Also, ensure you are using the correct tip sizes, liner, and wire for the particular job.
