Why Welding of Aluminum Requires Expertise.

The coating of this miracle metal gives the aluminum an attractive, uniform, hard surface that is also extremely resistant to corrosion. The characteristics of this aluminum-oxide coating make it very difficult to weld. Not for the welding experts at The Don Embry Body Shop of Louisville, it doesn’t!

There are three characteristics of aluminum that make it difficult to weld –

1.  Aluminum oxide is an electrical insulator, so maintaining a stable arc is difficult at best.

2.  The oxide doesn’t melt during welding.

3.  Finally, the oxide is porous, so it will absorb water vapor from the air.

You need a body shop in the Louisville area that specializes in welding after an auto accident. After 60 years on the job the welders at The Don Embry Body Shop of Louisville have perfected their craft. After an auto mishap in the Louisville area, rely on The Don Embry Body Shop. Call them at (502) 935-1373. You’ll see their rich history at thedonembrybodyshop.com.

When The Don Embry Body Shop of Louisville applies aluminum panels for automotive use it is nothing new for them at all. Many of your vehicle parts have been made with aluminum for years.

Aluminum and Steele…Two Important Components in our Industry.

Here at The Don Embry Body shop we have evolved with the times for sixty years. That includes the use of aluminum panels and components in vehicles. Auto manufacturers adopted this practice to combat heavy steel parts in the various makes and models. This helps vehicles test for specific emissions classes. It makes them eco-friendlier, with better gas mileage.

We know that aluminum auto body repair is a bit trickier than steel repair. There are many factors that figure into this, but maintaining cleanliness in the repair is the most challenging part. It is a fact that when steel gets embedded into the aluminum, it corrodes, causing potentially irreparable damage.

The Don Embry Body Shop has stayed one of Louisville’s top choices for auto body work for six decades by learning and growing. See how we handle everything from auto body painting to damaged bumpers at donembrybodyshop.com. Call for an appointment at 8272 Dixie Highway in Louisville (502) 935-1373.

The History of Aluminum Welding.

Now there is a riveting (no pun intended) topic to discuss over the dinner table! The average modern vehicle that tools around the greater Louisville area contains more aluminum than ever before. Aluminum is one of 92 metallic elements that have existed since way back when the Earth was formed.

As AlcoTec Wire Corp’s Tony Anderson puts it “There is a change in the culture and in understanding the difference between steel and aluminum…because they are very different as far as welding is concerned. Once you understand the difference, it's very easy to weld it… far easier than steel.”

Over the decades here at The Don Embry Body Shop we have been known for adapting to cutting edge technology. In the future, laser beam welding may become the norm! When you bring your damaged vehicle into The Dom Embry Body Shop located at 8272 Dixie Highway in Louisville, we treat it like our own. Drive in or call ahead at (502) 935-1373.

Aluminum Welding…Nothing New Around Here.

The application of aluminum panels for automotive repairs in Louisville is something we have been practicing for years. Hoods and deck lids have been made with aluminum for years. Why should steel parts be replaced with aluminum? Well, it helps minimize weight levels which can help vehicles become road-worthy again.

Why is aluminum becoming so popular everywhere? The government will never stop putting stricter fuel economy requirements on cars. It is all about weight, so lightweight materials are going to become more and more common. While it can be more complicated to fix, the cost in fuel savings far outweighs the costs of repairs.

Rest assured…aluminum welding is NO challenge for the auto body repair professionals at The Don Embry Body Shop! Even though they have been around since the early 1960’s The Don Embry Body Shop of Louisville has always stayed ahead of the times.

Even After Nearly Six Decades - Today is the Most Important.

Collision repair professionals are really no different than any other professional…they are resistant to change.  For example, it took many years for repairers to make the switch to “MIG welding” for welding early unibody vehicles.  It was a technology that was unfamiliar to many and there wasn’t even a perceived need for change.

Today there is steel welding, that has been the staple of the industry for many years, and aluminum welding, which is different…a lot different!  Unlike steel GMA (MIG) welding, aluminum welding is truly the embodiment of MIG welding because 100 percent argon shielding gas is used.

You don’t have to understand any of this, but what we hope you will remember is that when you have a vehicle collision in the Louisville area you will think first of The Don Embry Body Shop.  For six decades they have repaired damaged cars around the Louisville area from their shop at 8272 Dixie Highway.  Just call for an appointment (502) 935-1373.
