Choosing the Right TIG Welder

Choosing the right TIG welder depends mainly on the materials you need to weld, the thickness of the material, your available power supply and whether you need to weld aluminium. Our range includes DC and AC/DC TIG welders, with both single-phase and three-phase welding machines available for workshop, fabrication, engineering and professional use.

DC or AC/DC TIG Welder?

A DC TIG welder is suitable for welding materials such as mild steel and stainless steel and is a popular choice for general fabrication, repair and workshop applications. If you also need to TIG weld aluminium, choose an AC/DC TIG welder, which provides the AC output required for aluminium TIG welding while retaining DC capability for steel and stainless steel.

Single-Phase or Three-Phase TIG Welder?

Many compact and professional TIG inverters operate from a 230V single-phase supply, making them suitable for garages, workshops and mobile applications where three-phase power is unavailable. Higher-output three-phase TIG welders are designed for more demanding fabrication and production environments where greater welding capacity and duty cycle may be required.

TIG Welding Features

Depending on the model, TIG welders may include features such as high-frequency (HF) ignition, pulse TIG welding, adjustable current controls and foot pedal compatibility. Many TIG machines also provide MMA/ARC welding capability, giving you two welding processes from a single inverter machine. Always check the individual product specification to confirm the features included with a particular model.

What Can You Weld with a TIG Welder?

TIG welding provides excellent control over the welding arc and heat input and is particularly suited to applications where accuracy and weld appearance are important. Common uses include stainless steel fabrication, aluminium fabrication, automotive work, engineering, pipework, motorcycle and bicycle components, decorative metalwork and other precision welding applications.
