The Everlast Lightning MTS 225 is a 200A multi-process MIG, AC/DC pulse TIG and Stick welder from the heavy-duty Lightning MTS series. The PowerSet synergic function auto-sets parameters in all three modes, and the panel shows nearly all relevant settings at once, so there's little scrolling and quick adjustment.

PowerSet lets you enter basic operating parameters in MIG, TIG or Stick mode and selects the right amps and volts (where applicable) for you. A flux-core mode runs most common gasless (self-shielded) flux-core wires. Duty cycle at maximum output is 60% for TIG and Stick and 35% for MIG (200A).

Features:

  • MIG, AC/DC pulse TIG and Stick in one machine
  • PowerSet synergic function for all processes, with manual override for pre-flow, post-flow, slope etc.
  • High frequency and lift start in AC and DC TIG modes
  • Digitally controlled operation in all modes for better control and dependability
  • Operator-friendly panel with grouped controls and no complicated hidden menus
  • MIG welds aluminium, stainless or steel with 0.6โ€“0.8mm wire; optional drive rolls available up to 1.2mm
  • Memory saves and recalls up to 16 programs
  • Synergic spool gun capability with optional spool gun, ideal for aluminium
  • TIG torch, foot pedal and regulator included
  • Built-in gas solenoid and connections for TIG, so no gas valve torch is needed
  • True DC CC/CV multi-process design: one machine instead of several for the job
  • AC TIG for welding aluminium
  • Pulse TIG for more control and better weld quality
  • Compact and lightweight, ideal for on-site fabrication
  • Adjustable burnback control lets the wire melt back to the desired length, so no retrimming before restarts
  • 200mm (8") wire spool capacity
  • Adjustable MIG wave arc force control fine-tunes slope/inductance and arc characteristics
  • Adjustable Stick arc force and hot start controls
  • TIG upslope and downslope to control the end of the weld
  • 2T/4T torch trigger latch for TIG and MIG
  • Adjustable pre-flow and post-flow for TIG and MIG
  • 200A of MIG and TIG power; 160A of Stick power for electrodes up to 3.2mm

Welding Capacity

MIG, steel/stainless:

  • Maximum 9.5mm single pass*
  • Maximum 16mm multi-pass
  • Minimum 24 gauge (approx. 0.6mm)

MIG, aluminium: for best results choose the Parker DSP 360 spool gun (recommended) or the SM200N MTS spool gun. You can also fit a polymer liner and U-groove 0.9/1.2mm drive roll kit and use the standard 3m gun.

  • Maximum 7.9mm single pass
  • Maximum 9.5mm multi-pass
  • Minimum 14 gauge (approx. 2mm)

* Single pass welds over 6.4mm are not recommended as a sound welding technique.

TIG:

  • Steel: maximum 7.9mm single pass
  • Steel: maximum 12.7โ€“16mm multi-pass
  • Aluminium: maximum 6.4mm single pass
  • Aluminium: maximum 9.5mm multi-pass
  • Steel: minimum 0.18mm
  • Aluminium: minimum 0.5mm

Stick:

  • Electrodes 1.6mm to 3.2mm
  • Not E6010 rated

Maximum electrode size is ultimately determined by the brand and type of electrode.

Power Supply

Minimum generator surge wattage for maximum output: 9000W. If running from a generator, use only one its manufacturer rates as "clean power" (typically less than 5% THD); check with the generator manufacturer for certification. Everlast does not approve or endorse generator brands or models, and damage to the welder from a generator not labelled as clean power by its manufacturer is not covered by warranty.

Please note: to get maximum performance from your Everlast machine, make sure the breaker and wiring/socket where you'll use it are sufficient. For example, you may need to upgrade to a 32A dedicated circuit to achieve the machine's full duty cycle. If in doubt, contact a licensed electrician before purchasing, and see our terms and conditions/warranty for more information.

Manufactured to and compliant with IEC/AS 60974.10 and CE. Industrial use only.

Appearance and type of accessories and consumables may vary from what is pictured.

Backed by the Everlast 3 year warranty. See our Everlast Warranty page for NZ terms.
