Electrode Selection Guide
| ELECTRODE SELECTION GUIDE | |
| The number which follows each material is the RWMA (Resistance Welder Manufacturers' Association) number of the electrode which would normally be placed against that material. For Example, when welding Alumel to Consil, a RWMA -2 electrode should be used on the Alumel side, and a RWMA -11 on the Consil side. Not all combinations have been tried successfully. | |

About Us
Advanced Integrated Technologies is essentially a manufacturing service company with two major divisions. The resistance welding and reflow soldering tool division grew out of our early work building micro tools for Hughes Aircraft. About the time that Microsoft was turning computers into a household item, computer hardware manufacturers were looking for companies to build reflow tools used in the assembly of hard drives and other components.
