Yielding a huge 200 amps and 100% duty cycle at 155 amps, the Certa 200A ARC Welder gives you the ability to seamlessly weld from 4mm rods without stopping for easy repairs, maintenance and serious DIY.

ARC welding

Striking an arc between a flux covered electrode and metal sheet to form a join, ARC welds create their own shield gas thanks to the disintegrated flux vapours, making this weld ideal for outdoor use on weather-worn materials.

Ultra portable, all purpose welding

Incredibly lightweight, this ARC welder weighs just 3.3kgs, so it can easily be transported from work sites or easily stored away when not in use. Just hook up to 5.5KA generator to start soldering steel gates, metal tables and more.

  I'm a mental health worker so I can't use this for work exactly but looks pretty solid…

  Cut? How?

    Turn the amps right up and you have a hillbilly plasma torch I guess. Not exactly a plamsa cutter or oxy torch but you should be able to make a hole thru maybe 6mm??

      You'd certainly make a hole but it'd be a right mess. I'm glad I've got oxyacetylene as well as arc, it let's me cut and do so much more than if I just had arc.

      Put the electrodes in water so the flux soaks it up = poor man's gouging rods.

  never welded, don't need one but convince me not to buy at this price.

  Odd, it only has a 10amp plug, I would have thought with those numbers it would need to plug into a 15amp socket?

    Arc welders operate at a fairly low voltage. Arc welders used to be (and some still are) just transformers that dropped the voltage and raised the current. You varied the current by physically winding one of the coils (usually the secondary) into and out of the primary coil. It meant that even the small ones are bloody heavy as they're almost solid copper windings and iron cores. This days it's done with high power inverters and can be ridiculously light. My small one is 150Amps (or maybe 130) and it comes with a shoulder strap so you can carry it when using it. You'd need to be a power lifter to do that with the transformer based ones.

  The welding helmet costs more than the welder! $65.22

    Just wear 10 pairs of sunglasses.

    I bought an auto darkening welding helmet for less than $50 delivered off eBay. A worthwhile investment

      Not auto-darkening though. Their cheapest auto-darkening one is $60. Don't think I'd go back to a standard basic one again after changing to auto-darkening.

  Would this do plastic welds?
