Company History
AlcoTec Wire Corporation began production in 1984 and has grown to be the world's leading producer of aluminum welding wire. In 1998, AlcoTec was purchased by ESAB and has enjoyed the wonderful history of the ESAB organization as well.
The foundation of ESAB was built early in the last century by an inventive engineer who sought a practical solution to a common problem. In 1904, Oscar Kjellberg produced a heavily fluxed, or coated, electrode that substantially improved the quality of weld metal. As it melted, the flux coating vaporized and formed a gas that shielded the molten weld metal from air, thus preventing embrittling reactions from occurring as the weld metal cooled.
