PERFORMANCE
Five Welding Process Modes
1. CC-Stick Soft
Intended for low hydrogen stick applications.
Use to obtain outstanding E7018 performance for a variety of
construction and fabrication applications.
2. CC-Stick Crisp
Delivers a crisp shorting response optimized for cellulosic
(E6010) electrodes.
3. TIG GTAW
Standard Lincoln Touch-Start TIG
®
makes it easy to establish an arc
while minimizing tungsten contamination.
Add the optional TIG Module for touch-less high frequency starting.
4. CV-Wire

cored applications.
The V450-PRO features an exceptionally wide sweet spot
delivering the arc performance and finished weld quality every
operator appreciates:
.030"-1/16" solid wire
.035"-3/32" cored wire
Delivers outstanding performance with a wide variety of shielding gas
mixes, including 100% CO
2
, Ar/CO
2
or Ar/O shielding gas for carbon
steel as well as helium blends for stainless welding.
5. CV-Innershield
®
Features a wide voltage range and tight voltage control optimized for
Lincoln Innershield self-shielded flux-cored applications.
Arc Gouging accessible from all Stick and CV Welding Modes
