MigMaster® 253 Industrial Ready-To-Weld MIG Package

The ideal welding machine for every light industrial shop that wants rugged, simple equipment to do welding jobs of high quality. The MigMaster® 253 is a step regulated welding power source for MIG/MAG welding. Designed for medium and light-duty applications. A built-in wire feeder and the low weight of the units make them perfect, practical solutions for fabricators, farmers, vehicle repair shops and light production users.

  • Power Smoothing Device™ - excellent welding performance for single phase machines.
  • Easy change of polarity - it may be used with both conventional solid wire and self-shielding cored wire.
  • Easy setting of welding parameters - welding machines for light industrial shops.
  • Spot Time – Built in standard.
  • Burn-Back – Built in standard.
  • Units are fan-cooled and equipped with thermal overload protection.
  • ESAB MX™ Torches - designed to provide the utmost in convenience and versatility.
  • Spool Gun Control - Standard on the MigMaster® 253 with gun-on-demand.
  • Three-year warranty.

The MigMaster® 253 can also be fitted with optional digital meter kit for precise measurement of welding parameters.

Power Smoothing Device™

Although the MigMaster® 253 is a single phase unit, Power Smoothing Device™ gives them excellent welding performance in straight CO2 as well as mixed gas. Power Smoothing Device™ provides the same smooth welding current normally only experienced on 3-phase machines.

ESAB MXL™ Torches

Equipped with ESAB MXL torches featuring enhanced gas-cooling and ergonomic handles. Features spring loaded contact pins in the central connector to eliminate any possibility of pin misalignment.
Optimum cooling of the torches gives them extended life time of the goose necks and the wear parts. You can choose gas nozzles in 3 different versions -- standard, straight and conical. This provides maximum flexibility and an optimum life.
