Lincoln Invertec 160-T TIG Welder (K1845-1)

The Lincoln Invertec 160-T (K1845-1) is a compact DC inverter for TIG and stick welding, rated up to 160 amps and weighing 39 lbs. Auto-reconnect switches between 115 and 230V, 50/60Hz input, and high frequency starting establishes the TIG arc.

Integral gas and power connectors simplify torch hookup and make changing between TIG and stick quick. Selectable Touch Start provides high frequency TIG starting, and a built-in pulsing function adds control on thin material, and the machine can run from the auxiliary power of an engine-driven generator. Duty cycle is 100% at 90A TIG on 115V input and 100% at 130A TIG on 230V input.

Included are a 10 ft 115V input cord with NEMA 5-15P plug, a 20 amp NEMA 5-20P plug, a Twist-Mate torch adapter for PTA-9 or -17 one-piece torches, a fully adjustable shoulder strap, and a work clamp with cable.
