10 AMP PLUG

Connect to any standard outlet.

AC/DC HIGH FREQUENCY TIG

Perfect for Aluminium.

PULSE FUNCTION

Minimise distortion on the welded material.

FOOT CONTROL READY

Extra versatility and convenience.

AC/DC HIGH-FREQUENCY TIG

No need to arc up. High-Frequency TIG (H/F TIG) gives you more control when starting and stopping the arc. The arc can be started without contacting the workpiece reducing the risk of contaminating the tungsten or the weld.  

PULSE TIG FUNCTION

Pulse TIG function allows you to control the heat, which in turn helps minimise distortion in the parent material. This is exceptionally useful on thin gauge materials.  

10 AMP PLUG

Plug in and play. A 10 AMP power plug can be used on any domestic outlet. It’s perfect for the DIY home handyman or the professional welder looking for a machine that can be used almost anywhere.  

FOOT CONTROL READY

This machine supports the connection of an external foot control for extra versatility and convenience while welding. This allows you to adjust your amperage hands-free to avoid disrupting your torch movement.
