Helvi Artik 100 Stick Welder

Artik 100 is built for welding common ferrous metals (like mild steel) using appropriate electrodes, with a practical capability up to 1/8 inch thick. For non-ferrous metals or thicker sections, you may need a different setup or larger welder.

It offers short-circuit protection, an overheat trip, and an auto-off function, plus a built-in cooling system to help keep the unit safe during use and extend its life.

Use the weld control panel to adjust the amperage within the 100A maximum. Start with a lower setting for thin materials and increase as needed for thicker sections or different electrode sizes, ensuring you match the electrode and material recommendations for clean, stable welds.

Yes. Its portability, durable build, and 100A output make it versatile enough for home workshops as well as light fabrication jobs in professional settings.

The Artik 100 uses inverter technology for a lighter, more maneuverable design, and it includes a built-in cooling system for extended use. This combination makes it practical to carry and operate in a variety of job sites.

Ideal for sheet metal work, small steel structures, outdoor repairs, and general light fabrication tasks where a compact, reliable stick welder is needed.

1) Put on appropriate PPE (helmet, gloves, jacket). 2) Inspect cables and clamps, connect the ground clamp securely. 3) Insert the electrode and set the amperage for your material and electrode size. 4) Strike an arc and begin welding, maintaining a steady motion. 5) After use, switch off and allow the unit to cool before storage.

Artik 100 sits between the 80 and 120 models in amperage and capability. Artik 80 is lighter-duty with a lower max amperage for thinner tasks, while Artik 120 offers higher amperage for thicker materials.

Regularly inspect and clean the cooling vents, check power and electrode cables for wear, keep connections tight, and store the welder in a dry, well-ventilated area to prevent corrosion and ensure longevity.

Always wear proper PPE (helmet with appropriate shade, welding gloves, flame-resistant clothing), work in a well-ventilated area, keep flammable materials away, ensure the workpiece is properly grounded, and disconnect power before servicing or changing components.
