MULTIPURPOSE WELDER OPTIMIZED WITH FLUX CORED WIRE

ESAB Welding & Cutting Products announces the release of a new multipurpose welder, the MultiMaster® 300X. MultiMaster 300X is a ready-to-weld package that offers superior welding performance for MIG, DC TIG and stick electrode welding. Optimized for use with ESAB's Dual Shield X series of flux cored wire, this machine is ideal for welders currently using stick welding who would like to use flux cored wire.

Dual Shield X is ESAB's newest family of flux-cored wires. These wires offer advancements that make this new series much more forgiving than traditional flux cored wires, especially for less experienced welders, and give the welder a wider range of operating parameters, high deposition rates, fast travel speeds, flat bead profile, limited spatter and extremely easy slag removal.

ESAB's proprietary Super Switch™ technology on the Multimaster 300X features a high-speed solid-state power control that produces arc performance comparable to that obtained by considerably more complex and expensive power sources and makes welding with Dual Shield wire exceptionally easy. An output pre-set control with two digital meters allows quick set up straight from a Dual Shield X series quick set-up card. Multimaster 300X offers DC welding output from 15 to 300 amps at 40 percent duty cycle.

Other features include fan on demand, a heavy-duty four drive roll stand with serrated Dual Shield X Series wires in .045 in and .052 in diameters, a 400 amp, 15 ft gun set up for the same diameters, a convenient, large-capacity tool box, and an "easy-on" cylinder tray.

The package includes power source, built-in four-roll wire feeder, factory-installed undercarriage and cylinder rack, torch, contact tips, regulator/flowmeter, electrode holder and plug, and all necessary hoses and cables to make the machine ready to use right out of the box.  www.esabx.com
