-
18 April 2024Feels solid and high quality.

15 April 2024Too early to tell other that the throw of the pedal is pretty small so even with the amperage set as low as I can the pedal still feels quite sensitive
-
14 April 2024Nice smooth pedal with good grip under foot
-
14 April 2024Not in use yet.

-
13 December 2023Feel like good quality not used much.
-
10 December 2023Works well with Rtech tig 211 with good graduation. Great to teach my grandson on hopefully this will be useful as he goes into his chosen trade.
-
08 December 2023Now here's a proper foot pedal, big and heavy with anti slip stuff on top and bottom but very responsive and smooth to operate, an essential part of a tig welder set up. Highly recommended.
-
23 November 2023Simple easy useful
-
14 November 2023Re sale
-
02 November 2023Super smooth!!
-
31 October 2023Solid, reliable and responsive. Just what you need under your foot!
-
18 September 2023Excellent product
-
06 September 2023The size and spring loading of this pedal has made a big difference to my welding technique. Much less fatigue after prolonged use and a real feeling of precision and accuracy. It also seems to be very robust to cope with a workshop environment.
-
04 August 2023Bought this to replace the R-tech Pro pedal ( which has worked perfectly ) but find this pedal so much easier on the ankle due to the large footprint and VERY smooth action. Build quality appears excellent and it is a lot lower than the R-Tech Pro model. In my opinion well worth the modest increase in price. Use it with my R-Tech Tig200DV-PD 200 Welder. Another great product. No hesitation in recommending either of these products to anybody. Buy one you wont regret it.
-
23 July 2023After seeing reviews on foot pedals on Youtube i was expecting something a bit industrial, this pedal works really smoothly and being able to adjust the power during the *** is seamless.
-
19 June 2023Foot pedal is great, very controllable.
-
16 April 2023Bit klunky but otherwise great
-
03 April 2023great pedal, nice and smooth control.
-
02 March 2023Works really well, has a really good feel to it, the pedal has a good smooth operation, I also like the fact it’s compact and a good ergonomic shape so your foot is at suitable angle when standing at a bench welding.
-
25 February 2023Good strong pedal seems to be working great.
-
15 February 2023Good quality
-
10 February 2023must have bit of kit on Aluminum ,works a treat
-
29 January 2023Initially I thought the pedal would not get much use as it was not included in the deal but I was advised I would eventually need one. Having unboxed it I initially thought it was big and cumbersome and decided to give it a try as the torch trigger tends to take concentration away from keeping a steady grip. All I can say is if you're reading this and think you'll never use it and it's a bit of a luxury purchase, you'll regret not getting one! Seriously this is like having another hand on stand by, yes it is a fair size and yes there is another cable ** on the floor but once you take it for a spin you won't regret having it in your kit. It is soon appreciated on those awkward welds and since I plugged mine in it has stayed plugged in. I will soon be adding a CP9 switchless torch to my line up for those awkward spaces as the foot pedal takes care of amperage control whilst I concentrate on the job in hand. I would definitely recommend this as an essential bit of kit to be added to your purchase. It is well made and appears to be very robust with a grip foot surface, I can't comment on durability as I've not had mine long but if/when it wears out, I'm getting another!
-
27 January 2023good
-

25 October 2022All good
-
17 October 2022To control the amount of power to weld components, just like a car accelerator pedal, further you press down the more power, less acceleration, less power. Good for beginner to experienced welder. From first visual, very good quality component.
-
14 October 2022Quality
-
11 October 2022Foot pedal is probably one of the best on the market. This is the opinion of an absolute beginner who has watched hundreds of how to TIG weld videos. It really does make all the difference

11 January 2022Not having used a TIG welder before this purchase I have only ever used it with the foot pedal and have found it very easy to use and are already able to control the weld pool easily using the pedal. Only problem is that my brother (A TIG Welder for 20 Years) has tried the foot pedal (having never used one before) and is looking to nick it!!! (Luckily we've learned he needs a 14 pin socket Foot Pedal so it''s safe, phew!).
-
06 January 2022Works very well
-
06 January 2022good quality and has a really nice feel to it. it allows you to really fine adjust size of the puddle and thus the heat input. would not weld without

23 November 2021This foot pedal is excellent and gives much more precise feel compared to the one supplied with the machine originally which i always found had a very narrow operating window
-
14 November 2021Good quality, rugged and robust
-
02 November 2021Perfect!
-
02 November 2021to early

13 October 2021A good, controllable pedal.
-
29 September 2021Perfect for controlling the amps whilst doing thin aluminium floor plates

26 September 2021I have started using this and it seems quite easy to use.

23 September 2021Use this with the AC/DC 170 R-Tech welder, it works very well and feels like good quality.
-
06 September 2021Using this with a TIG 210EXT, works well.
-
05 August 2021Best we extra this year handy on long welds .
-
06 July 2021Seems very good also but haven’t used it yet.
-
30 June 2021A major selling point, I found this pedal to be easy and comfortable to use, very good build quality and the lead is long enough to very useful.
-
28 June 2021Seems good
-
27 June 2021Its a nicely built pedal. As with all TIG pedals one wonders about how the RRP is justified given the lack of complexity in the device itself. Still, this pedal is a nice one and it came included in the price of the welder, so no complaints here. only 4* because of the perhaps slightly cheeky RRP (although I've seen other rather similar looking TIG pedals at twice that cost on other websites...!)
-
20 June 2021Very handy to have this in the kit
-
14 June 2021haven't used yet so can't really comment but seems to be good quality

24 January 2021Good quality pedal
-
13 January 2021Cannot comment yet, but really hope its better than the pedal that comes with my previous R-Tech TIG welder, that pedal was rubbish, never worked properly from out the box. I replaced the potentiometer myself with another brand.

-

-
08 November 2020It’s a bit to easy to initiate the welder without meaning to. Could do with larger ** band at the top of the pedal’s travel
-
07 November 2020I have not used this facility yet, but the construction seems to be OK.
-
06 November 2020Only used it twice but very impressed with the quality and function

08 May 2020I am using the welder for various DIY projects and was particulary impressed by the ability to clean cut substantial thicknesses of stainless steel along with other metals. I would certainly ecommend to family and friends. This is a high quality, robust product which I am very impressed with
-
30 April 2020Great product , works well in all situations, highly recommended for home use or small business . Great construction and operation.
-
28 April 2020It provides the opportunity to "ease of the gas" when things are getting over-heated!
-
27 April 2020No yet used this but seems to be an excellent, solidly made item.
-
15 April 2020Used with the RTec tig, it's a good robust pedal. I'm sure it will give many years good service.

03 September 2019Great product
-
02 September 2019The grip is really helpful.
-
29 August 2019Foot pedal works great. Does exactly as it says. Perfect for aluminium welding and is a must in my opinion. The only thing that I have never understood is to why they are always so expensive especially when you notice that it's just a spring loaded box fitted with a 30 pence potentiometer.
-
26 August 2019Excellent quality.
-
03 July 2019Excellent first class
-
01 July 2019SSC Foot Pedal is good to use. No different to my miller foot pedal. Nice and wide though.

15 April 2019je l'utilise pour la ferronnerie d'art. C'est un peu tôt pour le recommander, je suis en train de me familiariser avec la machine
-
28 March 2019Well built, I have to learn this one, left hand right hand and foot.
-
26 March 2019Top of the range, very responsive but sturdy
-
14 March 2019Seems to work great but only had about 15 hours use so far, so i guess time will tell if it stays that way.
-
07 March 2019Makes so much difference..all the control, with both hands free. Wouldn't be without it.
-
05 March 2019Fantastic nice low profile. great build quality. Nice smooth action.
-
24 February 2019A handy addition and a well built item.
-
18 February 2019Comes free with the R-Tech TIG set. If money was no object, I’d still buy this. It’s my favourite pedal, not too bulky, smooth action, you can’t go wrong. It’s what makes a TIG set for me, all the control and no excuses for a poor weld :)
-
13 February 2019Excellent product - recommend to anybody

17 October 2018quality pedal must have
-
09 October 2018The pedal is a good size for getting most of a foot onto it with a non slip top and appears to control the current well.
-
23 September 2018as I've not used a foot pedal before this is new to me but seems to be user friendly
-
08 September 2018Nice quality pedal. Seems well made. Will hold up to heavy use
-
24 August 2018Works well, great quality and nice and small
-
19 August 2018I got this foot pedal with my new TIG210 AC/DC digital. It is of a solid construction with a non slip contact plate and the effort required to move it is no more than that of a guitar FX pedal. This makes amperage control so much easier than my old pedal. I would highly recommend this product.
-

11 March 2018Im a full time professional fsbricator welder using the pedal daily The product would be a great addition to any one using an r tech tig plant as there is great control of amperages and a light feel to the pedal. The ssc foot pedal is very well made with excellent grip and with a wide platform for foot placement it has made modulating the welding amps easier resulting in better heat control and excellent results Very pleased with the purchase
