{"product_id":"sip-05696","title":"SIP WELDMATE® PRO 180A ARC\/TIG Inverter Welder","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe SIP WELDMATE® PRO 180A ARC\/TIG Inverter Welder is a dual process inverter welder specifically designed for use in professional fabrication workshops.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePowerful, compact and lightweight, this welder also features Synergic Control which adjusts the welding current output according to the electrode diameter selected for optimal penetration and bead formation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFully compliant with Reg EU 2019\/1784 (Eco Design for Welding Equipment), this welder features a 4th generation inverter which is above 80% energy efficient. This means it uses less power at the same output as older inverters, helping to lower operating costs.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eApplications \u0026amp; uses: Ideal for use in professional fabrication workshops. Suitable for ARC\/TIG welding. Ideal for mild steel, stainless steels and dissimilar steels.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhat's in the box?: 1x SIP WELDMATE® PRO 180A ARC\/TIG Inverter Welder (230v\/16A), 1x 3mtr electrode lead, 1x 3mtr earth lead, 1x welding hammer\/brush. TIG torch sold separately (Item 08206A recommended).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDUAL PROCESS ARC\/TIG INVERTER WELDER FOR GREATER APPLICATION FLEXIBILITY AT HIGH DUTY CYCLES: Duty cycle 20°C: 180A @ 30% (ARC\/TIG). Lift TIG function for added welding versatility. Compatible with gas valve TIG torch (Item 08206A recommended).\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAN INFINITELY VARIABLE DIAL OFFERS SMOOTHER STEPLESS OUTPUT ADJUSTMENT FOR HIGHER QUALITY \u0026amp; EASY TO CONTROL WELDING: An intuitive control panel with LCD screen makes it easy to set the welding current output and select the welding functions.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSYNERGIC CONTROL ADJUSTS THE WELDING CURRENT OUTPUT ACCORDING TO THE ELECTRODE DIAMETER SELECTED FOR OPTIMAL PENETRATION \u0026amp; BEAD FORMATION: Electrode diameter selector sets appropriate welding current output based on the diameter size selected. This ensures the optimum welding performance for the required application. Selectable electrode diameters: ⌀ 1.6mm, 2mm, 2.5mm, 3.2mm and 4mm.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEASY-TO-USE WELDING FUNCTIONS DESIGNED FOR GREATER WELDING CONTROL TO ACHIEVE HIGHER QUALITY WELDS: Voltage Reduction Device (VRD) prevents accidental arc strike-up for greater user safety. Anti-stick function prevents the welding electrode from sticking to the workpiece when striking-up for a smoother welding process. ARC force stabilises the arc for greater welding control and improved welding efficiency. Hot start delivers a short burst of higher welding current output, to improve arc ignition and help to penetrate thicker materials.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMETAL CASING WITH HEAVY-DUTY CARRY HANDLE \u0026amp; HIGH-QUALITY FINISH RESISTANT TO WORK AREA DAMAGE: The compact and lightweight design ensures easy work area movement.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eTechnical Specification\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eITEM NO. 05696\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInput Supply: 230v (16A)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOutput Current: 10A - 180A (ARC) \/ 10A - 180A (TIG)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOutput Voltage: 20.4v - 27.2v (ARC) \/ 10.4v - 17.2v (TIG)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDuty Cycle @ 20°C: 180A @ 30% (ARC) \/ 180A @ 30% (TIG)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWelding Material Thickness: 1.6mm - 8mm (mild steel)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProtection \/ Insulation F\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"SIP","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58110584127869,"sku":"05696","price":175.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0810\/0839\/files\/05696.main.jpg?v=1777651293","url":"https:\/\/www.djmdirect.co.uk\/products\/sip-05696","provider":"DJM Direct","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
