Accu-Set is an exclusive design for accurately controlling amperage or heat output.
The precise control of the Stickmate allows the operator to adjust output by as little as 1-amp increments. Adjustments
can be made while welding to achieve desired heat level, unlike the step control design on
competitive products.
Duty cycle increases as amperage setting decreases. 100% duty cycle at 90 A, 25 V.
Assists with arc starting and arc stability.
Varnish protects and lengthens the life of the coils inside for increased reliability.
The cooling fan runs continuously and helps to extend the life of the power source.
Five-year warranty on transformers, stabilizers and generators; three years on electronics (drive motors, rectifiers);
and one year on guns.

T
he Stickmate 205 AC Stick welding power
sources have the control to get the exact heat
you need — always. Also, these machines allow
weld time to increase when amperage decreases.
They have the range and muscle to handle many
Stick welding, hard surfacing, and cutting jobs.
At the same time, they have the precision for low
hydrogen and special alloy electrodes. Recommended
for a variety of electrodes 1/16 – 5/32 in diameter.
Accu-Set
™
design provides accurate heat control
with infinite amperage control. This Stick welder
also allows a higher duty cycle when amperages
decrease to give you more arc time when welding
thinner materials.
