About
Every welder has stood at the machine doing the same arithmetic: what amps for this thickness, what wire speed for those amps, which rod for this rusty gate hinge. Stinger answers it in three taps. Pick the process, the metal and the thickness, and read real machine settings: amperage, voltage, wire feed speed, shielding gas and polarity, computed from the filler manufacturers' published charts instead of a forum thread from 2011. MIG and stick are free forever, every wire and every rod in the catalog, along with the sheet gauge table, the tungsten chart and a defects guide for the day a weld goes wrong. No counter, no daily limit, no trial that runs out. Stinger Pro adds the rest of the shop: TIG settings for steel, stainless and aluminum with the tungsten, cup, gas flow and AC balance to match, flux core parameters for the self-shielded wires, heat input in kJ/in and kJ/mm for WPS work, preheat guidance computed from the carbon equivalent, and the supply-run math of filler weight, rods per pound and minutes left in the bottle. Best of all, it keeps your notebook: every machine you run and the dialed-in settings that actually ran clean on it, saved on your iPhone and nowhere else. Every table names its source, every result calls itself a starting point, and the whole app works in airplane mode behind the barn. No account, no ads, no tracking, one payment.
