Tig Welders:

The PowerTig series from EVERLAST offers a broad range of performance and features at very reasonable prices. Each model's design and control layout is an example of convenience and superb design.

EVERLAST TIG welders have easily adjustable settings and innovative features. Also, PowerTig have high duty cycles that far exceed the competition. With high volume cooling and IGBT electronics from Infineon, the PowerTig line can handle tough jobs that would push a competitor's welder past its thermal limits.

The AC/DC models feature balance control and frequency control while welding in AC. Panel controlled welding is another feature that many users find helpful. This feature offers stable and consistent preset welding parameters.

TIG (Tungsten Inert Gas) welders require an air or water-cooled torch to hold the tungsten electrode, connected to the welder. TIG welding can weld different types of metals like steel, aluminum, nickel alloys, copper, brass, bronze and even gold. TIG is a useful welding process for welding wagons, bike frames, lawn mowers, door handles, fenders and more. TIG welding also works on different types of joints like butt joints, lap joints, corner joints and t-joints.[read more...]

TIG welding does not create smoke or fumes, unless the base metal being welded contains contaminants or elements such as oil, grease, paint, lead or zinc. The base metal should be cleaned before welding. Additionally, a TIG welder makes welds that have an outstanding appearance. Cleanup is fast and easy since there is no slag and essentially no spatter. To select the right TIG product, you should know the material you will be welding:

1. AC/DC products are capable of welding all metals, including aluminum.
2. DC products can weld steel, stainless and other alloys, but are not recommended for aluminum.

How to choose TIG welder:

1. Metal type should weld with electrical input. For instance, if you want to weld certain hard metals like steel or iron or bronze, an AC welder will work. For soft metals such as aluminum, a DC welder will work.
2. Decide how thick the metal you need to weld is. If you're welding thick metals, you will require high amp welders that are 310 to 700 amps.
3. Low amp TIG welders produce 165 to 200 amps.
4. Compare duty cycles.
5. Compare features. [Collapse...]
