Aluminum welding

Aluminum, welded clean and strong.

Aluminum is unforgiving to weld, and a bad joint shows. Capital M welds and repairs aluminum right, trailers, boats, brackets and custom parts, in our Highland Park shop.

The metal most shops avoid

Aluminum done by someone who welds it every week.

Aluminum melts fast, hides its cracks and punishes a rushed weld, which is why plenty of shops turn it away. Capital M welds aluminum regularly, so a cracked trailer, a boat hull, a bent bracket or a custom part gets a joint that actually holds. Aluminum work is done in the shop, welded with the right process for the alloy and thickness in front of us.

Why it matters

Aluminum is not steel, and we weld it like it.

  • We match the process and heat to the alloy and thickness.
  • We prep the joint so the weld actually fuses, not just coats.
  • We repair and reinforce, so the fix outlasts the failure.
  • In-shop aluminum work, from a quick repair to a custom part.

Questions

Straight answers.

Do you weld aluminum?

Yes, regularly. We weld and repair aluminum, trailers, boats, brackets and custom parts, with the right process for the alloy and thickness.

Can you weld my aluminum trailer or boat?

In most cases yes. Cracked frames, rails, ramps, hulls and fittings are common jobs. Send a photo and we will tell you what it takes.

Do you weld aluminum on-site?

Aluminum welding is done in our Highland Park shop, not mobile. Our mobile rig handles steel repair in the field; bring aluminum work to the shop and we will take care of it there.

Why do some shops refuse aluminum?

Aluminum conducts heat fast and hides cracks, so it is easy to weld badly. We weld it often, so we prep and set heat to make a joint that holds.
