Product reviews for R-Tech TIG Welder Digital AC/DC 170 Amp 240v (30)Powered by
Calculated from 30 reviews5 out of 30 reviews :24.08.2018 12:10Bought this unit for welding (not brazing) thin brass sheet. The advanced pulse function is a god send! I effectively weld using DC with a small amount of AC added (triangular wave) for cleaning and heat control. Seems to work really well. I will be buying the additional 2 year warranty at the end of my initial 3 year warranty!!!! 5 year warranty!!!! Who does that!!! Apart from KIA and they don't make welders!
16.06.2018 17:07I wanted an AC capable TIG machine as I need to weld aluminium for a car I am building. Up until buying the R-Tech machine I had been using a very cheap DC-only TIG with the most basic features. The new R-Tech is a joy to use. Quality is excellent, everything has a solid feel to it. Great features.
27.05.2018 08:15Never TIG weldered before but this machine makes it easy.I got the welder for hobby use but you could run a small buisness with it.
23.05.2018 23:45for work and hobby.
22.04.2018 19:06Hobby use, professional and hobby users, very good quality, stable machine and well built. Hard to beat at the price.
