ISO 18273:2015 — Aluminium Welding Wires and Rods

Procurement reference for classification of solid wires and rods used for fusion welding of aluminium and aluminium alloys.

This MNK-G.S.A page is an original procurement summary. It does not reproduce or replace the protected ISO publication.

Scope in Procurement

  • ISO 18273:2015 specifies classification requirements for solid wires and rods used for fusion welding of aluminium and aluminium alloys.
  • Classification is based on chemical composition. The ordered designation, product form, dimensions and batch documentation must therefore be confirmed together.
  • The classification does not establish automatic suitability for a particular marine alloy, temper, joint or repair. Manufacturer guidance, the approved WPS, class or OEM requirements and customer documents govern selection.

Where This Standard Fits

Product formsSolid wire electrodes, wires and rods
Material contextFusion welding of aluminium and aluminium alloys
Classification basisChemical composition
Scope boundaryDoes not approve a filler for every aluminium alloy or repair procedure

Ordering and Document Controls

  • Exact ISO classification and edition
  • Wire or rod, diameter, spool or package form and quantity
  • Batch certificate, manufacturer datasheet and traceability
  • Base alloy, temper, joint design and service environment
  • Approved WPS, class, OEM and project requirements
  • Destination and required delivery date

Edition control: the purchase order, approved specification, manufacturer documentation and current authorised ISO publication govern the supply. A classification or material name alone does not prove compliance or application approval.
