Full Penetration Aluminum Welding and the New Ford F-150 | TIG Time

►SUBSCRIBE for new videos every Monday and Friday: goo.gl/FRdNss
Ford has made the move into Aluminum on their F-150 line of trucks. Since they made the switch from convention steel bodies to Aluminum, there has been a lot of talk and speculation on how repairs are going to be made. You may have seen the recent Chevy commercial that has come out showing a steel tool box falling into the bed of an F-150, piercing the Aluminum bed.

Unfortunately, this is a very real concern, but a weld repair can easily be made, if you know the right techniques to get full penetration welds on Aluminum.
