Small Portable Spot Welding Guns
TECNA offers top-of-the-line manual or pneumatic portable spot welding guns with integrated transformers and digital weld controls. T. J. Snow stocks TECNA's hand held spot welders, portable spot welders suspended by a spring balancer and pedestal-mounted spot welders.
TECNA Portable Spot Welding Guns are a great replacement for discontinued Miller Spot Welders.
TECNA's small, portable spot welding guns are available in 2-6 kVA.
