The Handler 140 from Hobart comes ready to weld with or without shielding glass, and it expertly handles a wide variety of solid, mild steel or stainless steel, flux cored and aluminum wires. This handy MIG welder operates from 115-volt standard household current and features four output voltage settings with wire feed tracking and a purge setting, both of which provide quick and easy adjustment for different materials and thickness. The Handler 140 welds 24 gauge up to .25 inch in steel without burning through, and includes both a built-in contactor to make wire electrically "cold" when not welding and self-resetting thermal overload protection for optimum safety.
The proven built-in wire feeder with quick-release drive roll lever ensures reliable operation, and makes it easy to switch between .023 and .025 inches and .030 to .035 inches. This device also offers easy access to polarity changeover, which includes storage holes for spare tips.

Amazing Unit I bought this for random projects around the house, and it blew my expectations out of the water. I had assumed that because it was 120v, I wasn't going to be able to do much-- BOY WAS I WRONG!

Exceeds expectations I love it. I've made very successful welds on 1/8" steel using .035 wire and 25/75 argon/co2 mix, 5/32" cast aluminum using .035 aluminum wire with 100% argon, (repaired Webber gas grill cover hinge that broke in a gale: Saved a pretty penny!), 24 gauge steel using .023" wire 25/75 argon/co2, and several other thicknesses of steel up to 5/32". Flux core wire works well too on 1/8" and thicker steel, but of course not as pretty a weld. Easy to set up, adjust, and learn to use. Have not yet exceeded the duty... more info
Hobart 140 Mig Welder Great little welder, which I used primarily for autobody panels. Lots of heat, gas valve and regulators work well. Price was unbeatable when compared with a Lincoln or Miller available at big box stores. With free delivery what could be better?
