• DC Output: DC welding produces smoother, cleaner welds than AC — especially on thinner materials.
• Adjustable Current: Dial the amperage up or down to match your electrode and material thickness.
• Thermal Overload Protection: Automatic shutdown if the machine overheats — protects the unit and keeps you safe.
