Miller Maxstar 161 STL TIG Stick Welder – 5-160A Amp Range, P/N 907710001

Constructed with a complete TIG torch and fingertip remote package, the Miller Maxstar 161 STL TIG Stick welder (P/N 907710001) delivers portable TIG precision for mechanical contractors working on elevated ladders and pipe racks. Foot pedal remotes prove impossible to use when welding while standing on scaffolding or working off extension ladders. This complete package bundles the 160-amp Lift-Arc inverter with a flexible TIG torch, an ergonomic fingertip rotary remote, a gas regulator, and a heavy stick electrode holder.

The fingertip remote attaches to the torch handle, giving you stepless amperage control with thumb pressure without requiring floor pedals. Lift-Arc ignition initiates DC TIG arcs cleanly without high-frequency radiation, protecting building automation sensors and computerized plant controls. Auto-Line dual-voltage circuitry accepts 120V or 240V primary power, outputting down to 5 amps for thin stainless sheet or ramping up to 160 amps for structural stick welding.
