Austarc 13S, Classification E4313-A
A smooth running electrode with a soft arc,
particularly suited to light sheetmetal and
smooth mitre fillet welds.
Austarc 16TC, Classification E4916-A
A low hydrogen electrode with good
arc stability and out-of-position welding
characteristics. This electrode is ideal
for medium carbon steels, or steels of
unknown analysis.
Unicord 312, Classification ES312-16
A high tensile (50tsi), chromium nickel
electrode specially formulated for joining
all alloy steels and irons, and for tool and
die maintenance.
GTAW (TIG Welding)
Gas Tungsten Arc Welding (GTAW) is a
welding process where the arc is struck
between a non-consumable tungsten
electrode and the work piece. A ceramic
nozzle surrounds the tungsten electrode
and directs a flow of inert gas, usually Argon,
over the electrode and the weld zone. If
filler metal is required, it is hand fed into the
welding arc. The DC current output of the
Weldmatic 180 is suitable for welding most
ferrous and non-ferrous metals, but is not
suitable for welding Aluminium for which an
AC machine is required.

IMPORTANT NOTICE: Warranty
may be voided if equipment is
powered from an unsuitable
engine driven generator.
Generators used to power
this equipment must have the
recommended minimum capacity and
incorporate output voltage regulation.
Due to variation between generators
by different manufacturers, it is
impossible for WIA to validate operation
from all generators. Therefore, correct
operation of welding equipment on the
generator should be confirmed by the
manufacturer, before purchasing
the generator.
