YESWELDER 200A Multi-Process Welder: up to 200 A

What it welds

The YESWELDER 200A Multi-Process Welder is a multi-process with a maker-stated output of up to 200 amps.

At its top output of 200 amps, Miller's 1-amp-per-thousandth rule points to about 0.200 in of steel per pass. Where the rule comes from.

The listing doesn't give a duty cycle with its amperage, which makes long beads hard to plan; the rating plate or manual should state it. Why it matters.

Processes, per the maker: tig, stick. Check which torches and guns come in the box; a TIG torch or spool gun is often extra. Process guide.

Eye protection: OSHA's minimum is shade 10 for most of this machine's range (shade 10 for stick above 160 A). Full table.
