From the Inside... to the Outside...
HTP Welders are built tough to last long!
Thermoswitch
Protection
in the unlikely event
you might exceed the
duty cycle of your HTP
welder, don’t worry,
the thermoswitch will
shut the machine
down, protecting the
internal components
from overheating.
Circuit Breaker
Protection
HTP uses circuit
breakers on the
primary input side of
the welder - this helps
to protect the internal
components from
damage.
as we all know, copper
is a better electrical
conductor than
aluminum, lasts a lot
longer, but the main
reason for using
copper is to provide a
smooth, stable welding
arc. Now isn’t that
what you are looking
for in your welder?
Printed Circuit Board
our solid state printed circuit
board can be removed and
installed in seconds without
any tools for easy, do-it-
yourself service.
Main Relay Mechanism
this component is one of the
main reasons you will fall in
love with your MIG welder.
Imagine touching the welding
wire exactly where you want to
start welding, pulling the
trigger, and starting the weld
right there in exactly that spot.
With a main relay, the wire is
not “electrically hot” until you
pull the trigger.
HTP’s Gear Drive Feed System
is used on all of our welders,
except the MIG 130. We don’t
use any plastic like many of
our competitors. Why, because
a smooth consistent wire feed
results in a smooth stable arc.
Control Transformer – this is a separate transformer from the welding
transformer which provides low voltage to run the printed circuit board, wire
drive motor, and main relay. Many companies take this voltage from the
main welding transformer, shortening the life of the transformer and not
providing as stable a voltage supply.

Reverse Polarity – right on the front of the
welder without any tools – just in case you
want to use the “gasless” flux cored wires.
Full Undercarriage
HTP includes wheels
and a gas bottle tray
as standard equip-
ment – if we didn’t,
how else would you
move your welder
around the shop to
your project?
Recessed Controls
All of our potentiometers are
recessed. This helps prevent
accidental damage.
Stitch and Spot Welding
Many other companies charge extra for these features, but at HTP they are standard
equipment – why? Because it makes welding on light gauge sheet metal easier and
faster with less warpage and less chance of burn through. (Except MIG 2400)
10 ft. Coaxial Welding Gun
The coaxial design of our welding
guns provide a smooth, consistent
wire feed – essential when it comes
to a nice smooth stable arc. Also,
the welding gun is removed and
installed without any tools, which
makes it easy to change over to a
teflon liner for aluminum welding.
16 Gauge Steel Cabinet
We build our cabinets out of
16 gauge steel, not plastic
like a lot of our
competition - and we
MIG weld them
together – we don’t
use sheet metal screws
either – the end result
is a rugged cabinet
designed for years of use.
10´ Ground Cable – which is removed
without any tools – an important feature
if you happen to drop something on it,
sever the cable, and need to replace it.
Powder Coated Cabinets
We powder coat our
cabinets to keep your
welder looking good years
down the road.
Capability to braze steel, weld aluminum, steel, stainless steel and cast iron – without expensive add-on options.
The ability to handle 10 lbs., 30 lbs. or 40 lbs. spools of wire.
Free welding DVD actually gives you a “through the helmet” look at proper welding techniques and lets you hear
what to listen for – instruction that will benefit both the beginners and pros. Also describes the operation, mainte-
nance and troubleshooting tips for your welder.
Our special toll-free service and assistance hotline: 1-800-USA-WELD. Expert advice, parts and accessories are
only a phone call away!
Three year Warranty – HTP MIG welders have a three year warranty, so you know they will keep working for you
down the road.
Coaxial welding gun available in 10’, 12’ or 15’ lengths.
90-Day money-back guarantee: If for any reason you are not satisfied, we’ll take the machine back.
