The 180Si is designed with a maximum output of 180 amps to enable stick welding. Operators can weld up to 5/32-in. electrodes (6010/7018) and can choose a dedicated 6010 mode for cellulosic stick electrodes. 

The 180Si also delivers 200 amps for TIG welding and offers the following TIG features: 

• Pulse mode with options ranging from .1-100 pulses per second 
• A choice of high-frequency or lift start options
• TIG-ready capabilities with an 8-pin connector for foot pedals, hand amptrols and other devices  

Weighing in at less than 20 lbs., the dual-input voltage enables the operator to plug into a common power supply. Once it’s up and running, the user interface provides a seven-segment display and push-button controls. The components pack up in case with a handle and shoulder strap.
