Frequently Asked Questions
The SanARG 180AP is an AC/DC TIG welding machine that also supports Stick welding, giving it AC TIG, DC TIG, and Stick capability all in one unit. This combination makes it a versatile choice for shops that need to weld multiple metal types without switching machines.
Yes — its AC TIG mode is specifically designed for welding aluminum, which requires alternating current to break through the metal's oxide layer and produce a clean weld. For anyone specifically searching for an aluminum TIG welder, the AC mode on this machine is built for that purpose.
Yes, its DC TIG mode is designed for steel and stainless steel welding, giving the machine the ability to handle both ferrous metals and aluminum depending on which mode is selected.
This machine offers both HF-Start (high-frequency) and Lift TIG arc starts, giving operators the choice between a contactless high-frequency start for precision work and a simpler touch-start Lift TIG method depending on the application.
The SanARG 180AP runs on dual-voltage 120/208–240 VAC with automatic switching, allowing it to adapt to whatever power source is available at the shop or job site.
Yes, it's CSA certified, meeting recognized Canadian safety standards for welding equipment.
The SanARG 180AP includes a 3-year manufacturer warranty, providing solid coverage for an AC/DC TIG machine used across aluminum and steel welding applications.
Yes, a TIG torch kit with a foot pedal accessory is available for the SanARG 180AP, giving operators amperage control at their foot for more precise TIG welding, which is especially useful for aluminum work.
Yes — alongside its AC and DC TIG capability, the SanARG 180AP also supports Stick welding, adding flexibility for general repair and structural work beyond TIG-specific applications.
Yes — the SanARG 180AP is built to handle both AC TIG for aluminum and DC TIG or Stick for steel and stainless steel in the same unit, so you don't need separate machines for aluminum versus ferrous metal welding. Being able to switch modes on one machine is one of the main reasons shops choose an AC/DC TIG welder over a DC-only model.
