Econotig TIG Welder, AC/DC, 1- Phase, 30 - 160 A

The most affordable AC/DC TIG/Stick welding package available for novice users and hobbyists. The Econotig has the output to handle a wide variety of light industrial welding applications. Upgraded circuitry gives you finer TIG output adjustment with the remote foot or fingertip control. If you need more output while using the remote control, simply increase the setting of the front panel amperage control. AC output for aluminum welding and DC output for mild/stainless steel. Four-position polarity and range selector switch offers two AC current ranges, DC electrode (-) for TIG, and DC electrode (+) for Stick. Built-in arc assist starter for DC TIG. Built-in assist stabilizer for AC TIG on aluminum. Preset automatic postflow timer protects tungsten tip, workpiece and torch from contamination. Automatic high-temperature shutdown. Process switch automatically sets machine for TIG or Stick. Post Flow Cooling Circuit protection to extend the life of consumables and the welding torch is enhanced by our post flow circuit that provides shielding gas after you release the trigger.
