Form strong, deep welds in everything from rusted pipes to heavy machinery out in the field. These welders produce a smooth arc with a variety of electrodes, so you can fuse metals as hard as steel and as soft as copper. With a heavy duty transformer, they’re built to last a lifetime. Unlike other welders with sensitive electronics, the sturdy mechanical controls on these machines hold up even in grimy, dusty, and humid environments.
When welding steel, use electrodes up to 3/16" in diameter. For all other types of metal, use electrodes up to 5/32".
Model Number K-1297—Weld a wide range of parts using alternating current (AC) or direct current (DC). AC welding penetrates thick surfaces well, while DC welding joins thin metals without burning through them. DC welding also produces a more stable arc when you need to form neat-looking welds, work overhead, or meet specific pipeline welding codes.
Use electrodes up to 1/8" in diameter when DC welding.
Wheel Assembly—Roll your welder from one job to the next. Includes all necessary hardware for installation.
