They have the same features, the same size and weigh the same (8.4 kg). The difference is the current: the 160S reaches 160 A (at 45 % duty cycle) and the 180S 180 A (at 35 %). If in doubt, tell us what you're going to weld and we'll advise you.
As well as the machine and shoulder strap, it comes with a case with telescopic handle, 3 m lead with electrode holder, 3 m lead with earth clamp, welding gloves and 14 OMNIA 46 2.5 mm electrodes.
