The MIller CST 282 Stick Welder with Dinse-Style Connector is designed for the construction industry. With 280 amps of output, the CST is ideal for stick electrodes up to 3/16 in. and TIG welding pipe and plate. This new model is 6 pounds lighter than the CST 280 and now includes Miller's Auto-Line technology. These machines are offered with Dinse or Tweco style connectors, and Miller offers universal connector kits so you can swap out the connectors in the field.

Features:
Auto-Line Technology - allows for any input voltage hookup (208-575V, single or three phase) with no manual linking, This is ideal for dirty or unreliable input power.
Superior Stick Arc Performance - with settings specifically designed for XX10 and XX18 electrodes and a stiff and soft setting for each. The last amperage used for each of the processes is retained, so when you return from a different process the last setting is loaded and ready to go.
Adaptive Hot Start - automatically increases the output amperage at the start of a weld. Prevents the electrode from sticking.
Lift-Arc - provides TIG arc starting without the use of high frequency.
Digital Meter - provides more precise control when presetting or monitoring welding amperage.
Portable - at 34.6 pounds, the CST 282 is easily moved around the shop or jobsite.
14-Pin Receptacle - provides the flexibility to use remote controls to adjust the amperage and turn the output on and off.
Fan-On-Demand - cooling system only operates when needed, providing power efficiency and noise reduction.
Rack Mountable - racks can be used for protection, storage, and transportation of multiple power sources while using a single primary power cable.
Universal Connector Kits - Optional accessory (301611 or 301595)
