It also allows ½ inch thickness metal beside thin metal welding. Moreover, it accommodates all modern technological innovation like IGBT inverter, HF start, LCD screen, etc. The slim design makes it portable and easy to operate. It also equipped with all types of torch and cables necessary to start welding. The price is a little upper side compare to other Amico Tig welder but not as high as other same category brands available in the market.
In the upper portion we discuss the TIG-205 briefly, if you want to know more details on this product, please read the following features and benefits carefully.
Features and benefits
Improve Tungsten Life
The tungsten life is possible to improve in several ways like using right diameter electrodes, purchase tungsten electrode from reputable suppliers, be sure about the best composition of the electrode and ensure the tips are grind properly. In the gross, a smooth starting process has a high impact on tungsten life. Thus, the TIG-205 using High frequency to start arc which helps mostly to improve the life of tungsten as well as guarantees 100% start-up.
Dual Voltage
When you think about to buy a new welding machine, you have to think about the versatility and usefulness of that device. What type of power required to operate a device? In the market, there are available different brand some are operable in 110v, whereas some other at 230v. However, based on the position and power source of your workstation, you might be required such a device which is compatible with both. Keep this in mind; the TIG-205 manufactured to support dual voltage 115V and 230V current source.
2-in-1 Functions
Though TIG-205 is a tungsten inert gas welder, you can also use this device for stick or arc welding as it equipped with a torch and an electrode holder. Stick welding is a little bit easier to learn than TIG, so for a beginner, it will help a lot.
This 2-in-1 function gives you wings to weld in a different condition like small indoor fabrication as well as welding I-beam or other small or big work-piece around your workshop or construction sites. After all, you can save your money to purchase two different machines instead of a single one.
Weld Versatile Metals
With this fantastic TIG-205 welder you can weld ½ inch Steel, Stainless steel, Alloy steel, Mild steel, Nickel alloys, Copper, Brass, Bronze, Cast Iron and Chrome, etc. You can use this device for fabrication of any artistic steel made home or kitchen furniture or welding automobile or any piping works. The HF argon gas tungsten torch provides smooth bead, clean and spatter-free too.
Wide Amperage Range
Amperage control is an essential feature to get a beautiful smooth weld based on its thickness. Amico TIG-205 can weld ½ inch thickness metal easily, and you can control the ampere from 15 to 200 Amp. To weld thin workpiece you need lower amperage range simultaneously to weld thicker workpiece to get more penetration you will need higher amperage. TIG-205 fulfill all your welding need by controlling a wide range of ampere.
Simple Interface Easy to Operate
Though there is a common saying about the TIG welding that it needs a master to operate, the modern Amico TIG-205 welder makes it interface very simple. Just one knob you can control voltage and amperage and a switch with use for ON or OFF the machine. It has an LCD to show the amperage as per your setting. Moreover, modern technological innovation makes it easy to operate than other conventional welders.
One Year Warranty
Amico provides one year warranty for TIG-205. During this period they will repair or replace parts if necessary due to malfunction or damage during regular uses. However, the battery will cover under warranty, and the customer will need to bear the cost of shipment.

What we would not like about this TIG-205
Like other Amico welder TIG-205 also cannot weld aluminum, as it designed for other precious materials. The manufacturer develops this device robustly, but the TIG torch comes with a bit wobbly condition. However, you can weld with this torch comfortably.
As with other brands available in the market you have to spend some extra to collect an argon gas bottle with regulator, helmet, gloves and a pedal control if you prefer to use it. Don’t worry all you can purchase from Amazon or other online sellers.
Final Thoughts
If you are an expert fabricator, just looking onto the components of TIG-205, you can understand that the manufacturers put much thought into building the welder. The leads are sturdy; the aesthetics are charming to behold.
