The Power To Perform!
You work hard. You deserve the best tools. Consider
the Precision TIG 185 for general fabrication,
automotive/motorsports, vocational schools or
the serious hobbyist. Professional features like
patented Micro-Start™ Technology ensure a soft
start throughout the amperage range. Patented
Auto-Balance™ takes the guesswork out of optimizing
cleaning action versus penetration. Standard Pulse
control makes it easy to gain even greater heat
control on thin materials.
Compare the built-in torch parts storage compartment
or torch cable/helmet hanger. And, get the optional
cart and add a sizable storage bin for your remote
and cables, twin filler rod tube stands and a
low-lift gas bottle platform.
Greater Output Range
5-185 Amps (compare this to 10-180 Amps).

Based on amperage, it automatically
sets the optimal AC balance for the majority of
everyday welding applications.
Simply select Auto Balance or manually set your
desired level of cleaning or penetration.
MicroStart™ Technology :
Delivers a focused and stable arc at low amperage.
Conventional Starting :
Relies heavily on intense high frequency and hot
starting.
