Portable Welding Machine for 1/16-1/8-Inch Rods

The HONE brand, founded in 2002, has been committed to delivering originality and a customer-first promise since its inception in the welding industry in 2005. HONE welding machines cater to both the DIY and industry markets, catering to the needs of home users and welding experts who seek a high-end welder brand.

The Sim-Stick 120 features include a hot-start function that makes arc striking easier, an arc-force that provides smoother welding and deeper penetration, and an anti-stick feature that simplifies electrode removal from the workpiece. Additionally, it offers automatic protection against over-heat, over-current, over-voltage, under-voltage, and short circuit, ensuring safe and stable operation.

The package includes a HONE-branded DC 110V welder, an electrode holder with a 8.2-ft (2.5-m) welding cable and cable joint, an earth clamp with a 8.2-ft (2.5-m) welding cable and cable joint, a 7.2-inch (183-mm) steel brush, an adjustable shoulder strap, and a user manual.

The technical specifications of the Sim-Stick 120 are as follows: Power Supply: AC110V (90 ~ 140V), Rated Input Current (A): 39A, No Load Voltage: 80±5V, Welding Current (A): 10 ~ 120A, Duty Cycle (%): 25%@40℃, Electrode Diameter: 1/16 inch ~ 1/8 inch (1.6mm ~ 3.2mm), Electrode Type: AWS E6013, E7018, E6011, E6010, E308L etc., Protection Grade: IP21S, and Insulation Grade: H.

The advanced IGBT technology used in the Sim-Stick 120 improves the reliability of the welding machine, providing smoother welding and deeper penetration, as well as a stable welding current. The main transformer supplies high efficiency and a long-lasting duty cycle.

The humanized operation design features a 35-degree panel angle, making it easy to read the current data and adjust the current precisely, whether standing or squatting. The portable design, with a mini size and light weight of 5.8 lbs, makes it convenient for welding both indoors and outdoors, reducing fatigue during work.

The Sim-Stick 120 delivers perfect welding results, with a full, flat, deep penetration, and low spatter, making it an ideal stick welder for household and small workshop use. It has a wide range of applications, allowing users to build and repair various projects, such as garden fences, room roofs, bicycles, iron gates, and metal shelves, welding mild steel, carbon steel, stainless steel, and cast iron.

For safety, it is essential to wear eye, ear, and body protection equipment, insulate yourself from the welding machine and ground, keep your head out of fumes, and keep flammable materials away. If the welding machine fails to arc, it may be due to the acidity and alkalinity of the welding rods, and you can try exchanging connections or checking the rod's head to ensure the flux does not cover the iron tip.
