Abstract
A consumable welding filler material for cladding alloys includes a ductile metal and an alloying element in appropriate ratio to produce a hypereutectic during a welding process. In one embodiment, a consumable welding filler material for cladding alloys includes a metal sheath, which includes aluminum, and an inner core material, which includes silicon in an amount of greater than 12.6 wt. % so that a hypereutectic is produced when the consumable welding filler material is melted during a welding process.
