R-Tech TIG Welder AC/DC 200Amp 240v

All of our machines include everything to get you welding as quickly as possible, at no additional cost. All you need to do is add your selected filler wire and gas to get going.

All of our TIG welders include the following, in the box, at no additional cost.

• 4M WP26 Air Cooled Torch
• Earth Lead
• MMA Lead
• Gas Hose
• Mains Cable
• Argon Regulator
• Owners Manual
• Torch Consumables, Including Tungstens

Additional items such as a Foot Pedal and/or Trolley can be purchased as an optional extra, in the drop down menus.

No, the machine is fully operational using the switch on the included torch.

We do recommend a Foot Pedal as they provide the user with full control over the weld. Our high quality Foot Pedals have been designed to be fully functional with all of our TIG machines.

These can be purchased as an additional extra from the drop down menu. If you wish to purchase a machine now and a pedal at a later date, they are available as a separate item on the website.

Duty Cycle refers to how long a machine will operate for before it automatically stops the ARC to protect its components from overheating.

A 80% duty cycle at 80amps would mean that you are able to weld for a maximum of 8 minutes out of 10 before the machine shuts off to cool down.

Higher duty cycles at higher amperages would indicate a machine is made from more high quality components, built to withstand the stresses welding places on them.

At R-Tech we believe in building machines to last, with minimum down time to our customers, so we fit the most reliable power modules and IGBT's available coupled with oversized heatsinks. Therefore our machines are able to work harder for longer! 

We also quote our duty cycles at machines maximum amperage unlike some manufacturers who sneakily quote duty cycles NOT at maximum amperage which can be quite misleading!

Competitors 200Amp Tig Welder with 60% duty cycle @140Amps.. So what is the duty cycle @ 200Amps?? 

Welding Aluminum - When welding aluminum, you tend to find this process a lot easier when using an AC/DC Tig welder. You will have much more control over the welding arc which will significantly reduce the risk of burning holes through the work piece. We suggest using a foot pedal when TIG welding aluminum as it greatly increases your control over the arc.

ARC Control - You have complete control over the power output of the machine. This can be done via the torch switch also, it may not be the same control you would achieve with a foot pedal however it is more than you would have over a MIG welder. By setting the base amps, your maximum amperage and the time it takes for your machine to slope upwards toward that maximum amperage, you can ensure that you are gently applying heat to the work piece. It gets a little confusing but we cover it in more detail in our TIG Welding Guide.

A Great All-Rounder - As you only use pure argon gas for TIG welding, paired with a lanthanated tungsten, you should find it very straight forward to go from welding mild to stainless steel and then over to aluminum without changing a single consumable. Not only is a TIG welder versatile in the material it can weld, it is extremely versatile in the positions you are able to weld in, be this flat on a bench, vertically and horizontally.

Cleanliness - Welds produced by a TIG welder are extremely clean and should require no cleaning, this makes whatever it is your are working on, ready to go as soon as the weld is completed. As TIG welding produces little to no sparks, spatter is significantly reduced. Most machines come with a cleaning function, this is where the arc does a lot of the cleaning without you even noticing. This certainly saves you a lot of time!.

R-Tech provide you with high quality welding equipment with easy useable features, at exceptional value with un-rivalled direct customer support.

All our machines are robustly built using the latest ultra reliable IGBT inverter power components sourced from Siemens Infineon in Germany & USA.

We give a 5 year collect and return warranty on all our R-Tech machines, a true no quibble warranty. We pay for and arrange collection, repair and return to you. General turn-around is 3-4 days, Can you current supplier offer such fast service?

We also offer a free loan machine service to get you back welding quickly and if arranged before 3pm, this can be delivered next working day for UK mainland.

10 year duty of care on spare parts - We keep a large stock of spares in our Gloucester premises.

We build our machines in a modular basis which ensures any future repair bills are kept to a minimum, unlike some manufacturers who build the internals of their machines on just one or two P.C.B's. We ensure ours are designed to have internal components easily replaced ensuring cost effective repairs.

As with all major manufacturers of welding equipment, the R-Tech range uses components originating from several countries. 

The main part of our inverter range utilise 'Eupec (Infineon)' IGBT & power modules produced by American and German companies providing very high duty cycles with great reliability. With other components sourced from the Europe (internals) and the Far East (chassis and case components) from tried and tested high quality sources. 

All final quality testing is carried out at our premises in Gloucester, UK.

All orders for R-Tech welding equipment received by 3PM will normally be despatched the same day for next day delivery to the UK mainland, UK Isles may take 48hrs.

Once your order has been placed, will will email you an order confirmation, then a despatch confirmation with tracking number so you can track your order. We mainly use DHL who will often provide a 1 hour delivery time to you.

Simply order on-line or by phone on 01452 733933.

If you require any advice on which welding machine will best suit your requirements, please give us a all and one of our friendly sales/technical team will answer your questions
