OVERVIEW

Convenient Fingertip Control for TIG Welding

Take the hassle out of awkward welding positions with the Lincoln Electric K814 Arc Start Switch. If you have ever found yourself trying to TIG weld while standing on a ladder, crawling under a vehicle, or working in a tight corner where a foot pedal just won't fit, this is the solution you need. The K814 attaches directly to your TIG torch handle, giving you the power to start and stop your arc with a simple press of your finger. It is the ultimate upgrade for versatility and comfort in your welding setup.

Freedom of Movement

Equipped with a long 25-foot (7.6m) cord, the K814 gives you the freedom to move around your garage or workshop without dragging your welder with you. The switch straps securely to your torch, ensuring it stays in place while you maneuver. Because it replaces the need for a foot pedal, you can maintain a stable stance in any position, improving your overall weld quality and reducing fatigue. It connects in seconds using a standard 6-pin plug, getting you back to welding faster.

Simple and Effective

This switch is designed for simplicity and reliability. It acts as a trigger for your welder—press to start the arc, release to stop (or use your machine's 2T/4T latching functions if available). While it doesn't change your amperage while you weld, it provides the critical start/stop function needed for high-quality TIG work. Whether you are a hobbyist building a custom chassis or a professional on a job site, the Lincoln K814 Arc Start Switch adds a layer of convenience that makes difficult welds easier to execute.
