I'm not sure what the application is here.  As a control surface hinge you =
would probably end up with galling by using aluminum on aluminum.  I am =
using welding rod, but of the stainless steel variety, in all of my =
hinges.  Its larger diameter has eliminated the play, vibration, and wear =
inherent with the standard MS hinge and MS hinge pin combination.
