The ESAB ET 220i AC/DC TIG/Stick System (SKU: W1009302) is a high-performance inverter welding power source designed for precision fabrication and maintenance applications. Engineered to provide superior arc characteristics, this machine delivers up to 220 Amps of welding output while maintaining a compact and lightweight form factor. It is capable of both AC and DC TIG welding, making it an ideal solution for joining aluminum, magnesium, stainless steel, and mild steel alloys. The unit also supports Stick (SMAW) welding, adding versatility for field repairs where gas shielding may not be practical.
Technically, the ET 220i is equipped with advanced wave control features essential for modern TIG welding. Operators can adjust AC Frequency to narrow the arc cone for better directional control and penetration, or adjust AC Balance to manage the cleaning action versus penetration on aluminum oxides. The machine features High Frequency (HF) start for non-contact ignition, reducing tungsten contamination, as well as Lift TIG capability for environments where HF is restricted. The digital interface provides clear feedback on welding parameters, including pre-flow, post-flow, slope down, and amperage settings.
This package is supplied as a complete system, including a heavy-duty foot control for dynamic amperage adjustment, a 26-style TIG torch, and necessary cabling. The dual-voltage input capability (120V and 208/230V) ensures compatibility with various power supplies found in workshops and job sites. The robust design and comprehensive feature set make the ESAB ET 220i a reliable choice for industrial MRO, automotive fabrication, and vocational training environments requiring a full-featured AC/DC solution.
