The TIGMATE™ is a complete AC/DC, TIG and Stick welding package. There are no hidden costs or extras to buy. All you need is a bottle of shielding gas and some Stick electrodes and you're ready to start welding. It's ideal for farmers, ranchers and hobbyists.

In the TIG mode, the TIGMATE offers superior performance: 18 gauge to 3/16 in. (1.2 to 4.8 mm) steel and stainless steel; 14 gauge to 3/16 in. (1.8 to 4.8 mm) aluminum. For thicker metals, take advantage of the Stick mode using 3/32 and 1/8 in. (2.4 and 3.2 mm) electrodes.

Comes complete with:

  • Power source with primary cord and plug
  • Electrode holder and quick-connect
  • 150 amp TIG torch with 12-1/2 ft. (3.8 m) cord and flow-through quick-connect
  • Fingertip or foot-operated control
  • Gas regulator, flowmeter and shielding gas hose
  • 12 ft. (3.7 m) work cable and clamp
  • "How-To" videotape
Processes
  • TIG (GTAW)
  • Stick (SMAW)
Applications
  • Light Industrial
  • Farm/Ranch
  • Hobbyist
  • Homes
Features
  • 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 superior aluminum welding, DC output for mild and stainless steel
  • Four-position polarity and range selector switch offers two AC current ranges, DC electrode (-) for TIG, and DC electrode (+) for Stick
  • Special arc starting circuitry eliminates high-frequency starts
  • Patented, built-in arc assist stabilizer for AC TIG on aluminum
  • Patented, built-in arc assist starter for DC TIG
  • Process switch automatically sets machine for TIG or Stick
  • Unique "flow-through" shielding gas TIG torch connection allows removal of torch without tools
  • Preset automatic postflow timer protects tungsten tip, workpiece and torch
  • Automatic high temperature shutdown
Accessories
  • Universal Carrying Cart and Cylinder Rack #042 934: The power source mounts securely to the top, and a cylinder rack supports the argon cylinder. The bottom tray can hold electrode leads, etc. Cylinder rack will accommodate 6 - 9 in. (152 - 228 mm) diameter, and 24 - 56 in. (610 - 1422 mm) high cylinders. Also supports five standard TIG filler metal tubes and one Stick welding rod tube. Net shipping weight is 69 lbs. (31 kg).
  • RCC-14 Remote Contactor and Current Control #151 086-01-1: A fingertip control can be used instead of the supplied remote foot control. This rotary-motion fingertip control fastens to TIG torch handle using two Velcro strips. Includes 28 ft. (8.5 m) cord and plug. Allows complete current and contactor control.
  • RHC-14 Hand Control #129 340-01-7: Miniature hand control for remote current and contactor control. Dimensions: 4 in. (102 mm) x 4 in. (102 mm) x 3-1/4 in. (82 mm). Includes 20 ft. (6 m) cord and 14-pin plug.
  • RFCS-14 Foot Control #043 554-01-1: Foot current and contactor control. Includes 20 ft. (6 m) cord and 14-pin plug.
