The Hobart Stickmate LX 235 AC / 160 DC Stick Welder without Running Gear (500421) lets you choose between AC or DC weld output to expand your welding options to either AC or DC Stick electrodes. DC output means fewer arc outages, less sticking, less spatter, better control on thin work, and easier out-of-position welding. AC output produces less arc blow and easier starts.

The Accu-Set design provides accurate heat control with infinite amperage control. This Stick welder also allows a higher duty cycle when amperage decreases to give you more arc time when welding thinner materials.

Highlights:
• Accu-Set amperage indicator for accurately controlling amperage or heat output
• Infinite current control allows the operator to adjust output by as little as 1-amp increments
• Output selector switch to quickly select low or high range without adjusting the output leads
• High 100% duty cycle rating (100 amps AC / 65 amps DC)
• Fully varnished magnetic coils for enhanced coil reliability and life
• Forced-draft cooling fan runs continuously and helps to extend the life of the power source
• Replaceable weld cables

Comes Complete With:
• 15 ft. (4.6 m) electrode cable with heavy-duty holder
• 10 ft. (3 m) work cable with clamp
• 5 ft. (1.5 m) primary cable with plug
• 5/3/1 Industrial Warranty. Five year warranty on transformers, stabilizers and generators; three years on electronics (drive motors, rectifiers); one year on guns (MIG and plasma torches)
