The handler 190 is capable of welding mild steel flux core steel stainless steel and aluminum.
Weld as thin as 24 gauge up to 5 16 inch in a single pass with a broad output range of 25 190 amps.
While wire feed welding sheet metal go for short bursts of welding instead of a going on a long bead.
This means your hobart 190 will be better with stainless steel and aluminum welding.
Its welding range is between 24 gauge sheets and 5 16 inch thick metal bars or beams.
