Hey guys im new here and trying to start to learn to weld with tig.. a guy at my job has what he calls a solar tig 1600 ive looked all over the internet for even some info on it and i cant find a thing about it im looking to buy it considering its alot cheaper then some of the new units if anybody knows anything i would greatly appreciate it TIA
Reply:getcrunk,Don't know a thing about that particular machine.I do have an older Solar 2115 Mig. Not a bad little mig, but not on a par with current machines.Solar is no longer in the welding business. Rumored that they were bought out by Century and then ceased to exist.I would be very leary of a Solar tig. If you ever had a problem (and you will), I question if you'd be able to get it repaired or even get parts.Syncro 250 DX Dynasty 200 DXMM 251 w/30A SG XMT 304 w/714 Feeder & Optima PulserHH187Dialarc 250 AC/DCHypertherm PM 1250Smith, Harris, Victor O/ASmith and Thermco Gas MixersAccess to a full fab shop with CNC Plasma, Water Jet, etc. |
