Handler 125 vs TIG200
Same fields. Each cell is that model's published text. A blank stays "Not published by manufacturer." The outlet chip does not hide either column.
| Spec | Handler 125 | TIG200 |
|---|---|---|
| Process | Flux-cored out of the box, and MIG after a regulator and shielding gas are added. The sheet calls it a constant-voltage DC welder. | DC TIG and stick. |
| Output amp range | 25–130 A. | On 240 V: TIG 190 A and stick 185 A. On 120 V: TIG 145 A and stick 140 A. The lower limit is 10 A for either process. |
| Rated duty cycle | 80 A at 25% duty cycle. The specifications table also prints 50 A at 60% and 40 A at 100%. | Not published by manufacturer |
| Input voltage and plug | 120 V. Amps input at rated output, 60 Hz: 21.3 A. The sheet says it operates on common 120-volt power and includes a power cord with plug. It does not name the plug or a breaker size. | Dual-voltage 120/240 V input. Input amperes are not in that description. |
| Wire or rod size | Ready to weld with .030–.035 in. (0.8–0.9 mm) self-shielding flux-cored wire. With gas, .023–.030 in. (0.6–0.8 mm) solid wire. Stainless wire is mentioned for 18–12 gauge stainless with tri-mix gas. | Not published by manufacturer |
| Weight | 57.5 lb. | Not published by manufacturer |
| Material thickness | Mild steel thickness range 24 ga.–3/16 in. The same page limits the gas-shielded example to 24 gauge–1/8 inch steel. | 7/16-inch steel in a single pass is tied to the 190 A, 240 V TIG sentence. The 10 A floor is described as mild enough for 24-gauge sheet metal. A 120 V thickness is not printed. |
