Default silican bronze

Yeah, low heat, thin metal and rust metal friendly, and easy to grind. I use it in these applications and on any overlapped low stress areas.

I started using the silican bronze growing up in my Dad's Commercial/Industrial sheet metal shop. Used it alot in fabricating roof flashing's, rain caps, etc. Except I used a copper jacketed carbon stick, stuck in a electrode holder instead of a Tig torch.
It's also used alot in ductwork applications in nuke plants.
