This 160 amp inverter welder plugs into ordinary 110V household current through the included adapter pigtail, or into 220V for full output, and joins mild steel up to 1\/4\" thick. Switch to gasless flux-cored wire when a gas cylinder is impractical or a breeze would blow shielding gas off the arc. At about 23 lb, with a front panel of plain knobs and selectors, the MIG160 moves easily from garage bench to jobsite.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThree processes, one box:\u003c\/strong\u003e MIG (GMAW), flux-core (FCAW), and stick (MMA) welding; a built-in gas solenoid and Euro-style connector handle gas-shielded MIG.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDual voltage input:\u003c\/strong\u003e single phase 110V or 220V at 60 Hz, giving up to 160 A MIG and 140 A stick on 220V, or 120 A MIG and 110 A stick on 110V.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGasless flux-core capable:\u003c\/strong\u003e runs 0.030–0.035\" flux-cored wire with no gas bottle and loads 1 lb and 2 lb spools.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProtection built in:\u003c\/strong\u003e cold electrode, overcurrent, overheating, and power spike protection on a fan-cooled IGBT inverter.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAbout PrimeWeld:\u003c\/strong\u003e a Blackwood, New Jersey welding equipment maker that backs every machine with a 3-year warranty and US-based support six days a week.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow to Use It\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eSet the MIG\/MMA selector for the process you want, then dial voltage and wire speed to suit the metal. Choose 2T so the arc runs only while you squeeze the trigger, or 4T to lock it on for long passes. Load solid wire for gas MIG or flux-cored wire for gasless work, and fit the matching drive roll. Keep about 1\/2\" of stick-out at the contact tip, push the gun up to 15° with solid wire, and drag it with flux-core. Lay a stringer bead on scrap before touching the project.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eModel: MIG160; single phase 110V or 220V plus or minus 15 percent, 60 Hz; 56V no-load; 20 A breaker\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDuty cycle: 30 percent rated; MIG\/flux 20 percent at 90 A, 100 percent at 45 A\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWire: 0.023–0.035\" solid, 0.030–0.035\" flux-cored; feed 79–394 in\/min\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSize and weight: 15.6 x 8.3 x 13.3\", 23.8 lb; IP21 housing, class F insulation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIn the box: 7.5 ft MIG\/flux torch, 10 ft ground clamp, 10 ft electrode holder, gas hose, 110\/220V pigtail adapter, three V- and K-groove drive rolls, 1 lb solid wire, operator’s manual\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eStop by Garoppo’s Stone \u0026amp; Garden Center and Feed \u0026amp; Pet Supply to see it in person and pick one up, or schedule local delivery within our service area.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"PrimeWeld","offers":[{"title":"Per Unit","offer_id":67797845377316,"sku":"60102","price":339.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0968\/5322\/9860\/files\/primeweld-mig160-portable-flux-core-mig-welder_93750523-5e3a-4cf7-8d4d-a9e50c72a854.png?v=1792426292","url":"https:\/\/garoppos.com\/products\/primeweld-mig160-portable-flux-core-mig-welder","provider":"Garoppo's Stone \u0026 Garden Center and Feed \u0026 Pet Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
