Description

Hobart® Handler® 140 MIG Welder 500559

The Hobart® Handler® 140 MIG welder has been upgraded with new features normally found in much more expensive welders. The Handler 140's wire drive motor is now made out of cast aluminum, not plastic, providing smooth, industrial grade wire feeding. Voltage control has been upgraded from 4 taps to 5, giving the operator greater voltage control for more precise welding arc control. The new heavy duty steel ground clamp is an upgrade over the lighter copper ground clamp found in previous Handler® 140 models.

The Hobart Handler® 140 operates off 115 volt standard household current for maximum versatility and comes ready to weld with or without shielding gas, no additional kit required. With an amperage output range of 25 - 140, it easily handles a broad selection of solid mild steel or stainless, flux cored and aluminum wires.

Processes

MIG (GMAW)

Flux Cored (FCAW) (gas and self-shielded)

Can this welder weld 3/8" thick steel?

1 Answer

The Hobart Handler 140 is designed to weld up to 1/4" steel. Ultimately, you would be able to achieve 3/8" with multiple passes but we would not suggest using this welder if you will be doing 3/8" often.

Between the Hobart 140 and the Miller 141 what are the differences? And witch one is the best for welding auto bodies?

1 Answer

The Hobart Handler 140 MIG Welder 500559 and the Millermatic 141 MIG Welder 907612 are very similar.They both run on 110 volt .They both have a max output of 140 amps. The mig guns are basically the same model and both models have cast aluminum wire drive systems. The biggest differences are in the weld output controls.Both units use an infinitely variable wire speed control. The Handler 140 has a five position tap switch for voltage control. The Millermatic 141 uses an infinitely variable voltage control. The infinitely variable voltage control allows for more precise control of weld output.. The Millermatic 141 also has a feature know as Auto Set. This feature automatically sets the correct wire feed speeds and voltage when using .030 and .024 wire. Both units will do a good job when welding auto bodies. The Miller because of has Auto Set and infinitely variable voltage control will provide a more precise control of weld output and will be a little better when trying to control heat input on thin body panels
