    Sorry Brit,

    I did find your email, I had made a note to reply but I will work on a reply for you. But as far as a call, I do not have any record of it.
    the I-MIG 160 will be good for 1/4" though, but that will depend just like anything else upon conditions and skill.

    I would have to ad , my own experiance, that 160 amps is pushing it for .250 steel. If it where me I would go up to the next higher amps at least to a 200 because you would be pushing the machine toward its upper limit at only 160 amps.
    Just my 2 pennies here.

    I spoke with a Don last night on a tech call. I recommended the Power IMIG 200 for him and it was the same deal. And you can go a little thicker if you need.
