Ill stop by and see what they have I can physically touch

My 2 cents - Yes, if you use a Y fitting, with shutoff valves on both inputs. You will have to purge when switching functions. I do the same thing with my Everlast, except I use Quick disconnect fittings between air, argon, and C25 Thanks - would you mind sharing a link to a suitable style of quick...

Ok, Here goes my dumb question of the week. I have a multi-process welder (Everlast) that I have been using for MIG+Stick for a while now, but am just getting around to trying out TIG. I have Argon tank and flowmeter already. my question is - can you connect both gas sources via a "Y" and ...

Hi bap, thanks so much for the info. I do have a 125CFG 100% Argon cylinder filled.

Welcome to the forum! I googled and saw a lot of references saying the Hobart is a rebranded Miller. During those google travels i found a hobart part number for a gas kit; when i followed that path it lead me to the Northern Tool website and said that exact part is out of stock. It gave a little p...

Hi all, I have a Hobart Auto Arc 130, which I THINK is a re-branded MillerMatic 130 ? If so, I was pretty sure I had previously found a Gas Kit for it - for the Millermatic which is supposed to work on the Hobart as well.. but, I cannot find it now despite hours of googling. Can anyone point me to t...
