(MMA) welding
Depending on which weld process you intend to use, a certain minimum level of equip-
ment will be needed in order to work with the power source.
In the section below, you will find lists of what equipment is needed (as a minimum) for
welding with each of the weld processes.
- CastoTIG 1702/2202 AC/DC power source
- Grounding (earthing) cable
- TIG welding torch with rocker switch
- Gas connection (for supplying the machine with shielding gas), with pressure
regulator
- Filler metal (depending on the application)
- CastoTIG 1702/2202 AC/DC or CastoTIG 2201 DC power source
- Grounding (earthing) cable
- TIG welding torch with rocker switch
- Gas connection (for supplying the machine with shielding gas)
- Filler metal (depending on the application)
- CastoTIG 1702/2202 AC/DC or CastoTIG 2201 DC power source
- Grounding (earthing) cable
- Electrode holders
- Rod electrodes (as required by the application)
