Matador HQ PRO-165 TIG/Stick Welder – 165A 220V Inverter | Runs 7018/6010/8010| Arc Force Control | Portable Industrial Machine

This is a dedicated 220V machine, built for consistent power, stable arc performance, and the ability to handle electrodes that most small inverters struggle with—like 6010 and 8010 rods.

Why 220V Only Matters

Running strictly on 220V means:

• More stable arc under load
• Better performance with demanding electrodes
• No power drop-offs or inconsistencies

This isn’t about convenience—it’s about performance where it counts.

Where It Separates Itself

Runs 7018/6010/8010 Rods

Most machines in this class stay in the 6013/7018 lane.
The PRO-165 is built for:

• Pipe roots
• Structural welds
• Field repairs requiring penetration

This is real welding capability—not just surface-level performance.

Arc Force Adjustment (Your Advantage)

Gives you control that many compact machines don’t:

• Reduces rod sticking
• Keeps the arc aggressive when needed
• Helps maintain stability in out-of-position welding

TIG Ready (Recommended Setup)

For TIG welding, best performance comes from pairing it with a:

👉 150 Amp single-lead TIG rig

Simple, effective, and reliable for:

• Light fabrication
• Detail work
• Shop use

Core Features

• 165 Amp Output (220V Only) – Built for consistent power
• Stick + TIG Capability – Two processes, one machine
• Arc Force Control – Better control on demanding rods
• Digital Display – Clear and accurate settings
• Portable Design – Lightweight, jobsite-ready

Included

• PRO-165 Welding Machine
• Electrode Holder
• Ground Clamp
• Welding Leads

Built For

• Welders who want more than a beginner machine
• Pipe and structural applications
• Students learning proper rod control
• Fabricators needing portable performance

The Bottom Line

This isn’t built to be convenient.
It’s built to perform.

No dual-voltage compromises.
No watered-down arc.

Just a compact machine that delivers where it matters.
