BENCHMARK Inverter Arc Stick Welder - Dual Volt, 160 Amp

This dual voltage unit leverages cutting-edge inverter technology, ensuring superior arc initiation and a consistently stable arc. With Direct Current (DC) output, it produces a smoother weld bead, making it perfect for shielded metal arc welding. Its robust construction and thoughtful features, such as over-current protection with an indicator light, ensure enduring performance. User-friendly, easy-access controls allow precise adjustment of settings, and its lightweight design ensures easy transport.
