The thickness would only matter with how many passes you make and how much care you take in preping the welding area.Which one of the most important part of the whle process of welding is your preping of the weld area.

well go forbid someone mention it again...

Shawn you freaking idiot, can you please read every other thread before you post something that might have already been covered. Truggy doesnt have time to read thru all your repeating crap...

Thanks for the input, i agree, prep is the most important part of any weld, no matter what kind of wire and gas you are using.

.120 tube is only 1/8", so I wouldn't consider that thick at all. You shouldn't have any problem at all welding it with a 110V machine.

I have burnt through tubing with my old 110 volt welder. Save your money and buy a good 220 volt welder, the solid wire with the co25 is great and the wire is about 1/2 price.
