Description
Set it and forget it. With its digital interface and the ability to store up to 5 pre-set programs, the Eastwood Elite TIG 200 Digital Welder lets you intuitively dial in precise values for all your welding settings. The Eastwood-exclusive color LCD screen is easy to use and navigate quickly with no need to remember confusing symbols or abbreviations for settings.
This versatile 200-Amp machine can operate on either 120 or 240 Volts and is capable of both TIG and stick welding on up to 1/4-in. on steel, stainless steel, and aluminum. Taking advantage of the latest inverter technology, it’s a compact and lightweight fully capable of high-quality welds. Superior AC balance and frequency adjustments allow you to dial in precise adjustments for clean aluminum welds.
This TIG 200 Digital also features a pulse function to minimize warpage and blow-through, plus the option of either finger or rocker style foot pedal controls. A flex-head torch with gas lens kit (often expensive upgrades on other units) come standard with this machine for the best welds.
All this adds up to a superior TIG welding machine with professional features at an unbelievable value. And it’s all backed up by Eastwood’s 3-year warranty and lifetime tech support.

Duty Cycle
The rated Duty Cycle refers to the amount of welding that can be done within an amount of time. The Eastwood Elite TIG 200 LCD has a duty cycle of 20% at 200 Amps. It is easiest to look at your welding time in blocks of 10 Minutes and the Duty Cycle being a percentage of that 10 Minutes. If welding at 200 Amps with a 20% Duty Cycle, within a 10 Minute block of time you can weld for 2 Minutes, with 8 Minutes of cooling for the Welder. If the Duty Cycle is exceeded, the Welder will automatically shut off, however the fan will continue running to cool the internal components. When a safe temperature has been reached, the Welder will automatically switch the Welder output back on. To increase the duty cycle you can turn down the Amperage Output control.

Safety Information

What is High Frequency Start for TIG welding?
High Frequency Start (HF) allows the operator to position the tungsten electrode near the metal to be welded and simply press the torch trigger or foot pedal to start the arc. HF is typically found on professional TIG welding machines with AC/DC function that also allows you to weld both steel and aluminum. This is a preferred method over lesser units that use a Scratch Start system that is not user friendly because it makes the operator touch the tungsten to the metal to be welded to start the arc. This makes it very difficult to maintain a good clean tungsten because it can easily stick to the material to be welded.
What does AC/DC mean in TIG welding?
DC polarity means the machine can weld steel. AC means it can weld aluminum. An AC/DC machine has the capabilities to weld both steel and aluminum and is typically the preferred machine for fabrication because of the ability to weld both materials.
Can I use a TIG Cooler with this unit?
Yes, Eastwood offers TIG Coolers for Eastwood machines and other brands. They can be found here: Eastwood TIG Coolers.
What is the best way to sharpen a tungsten?
A dedicated grinder should always be used to sharpen a tungsten. If you use a standard bench grinder that is used to grind other metals, the debris from the grinding wheel will contaminate the tungsten and create a bad arc and poor welds. We suggest a dedicated hand held Tungsten Grinder to sharpen tungstens. Tungsten Grinders can be found here:
