Welding Equipment And Industrial Supplies Financing

Welding Mart has partnered with Clicklease to provide industry-leading welding equipment for a low monthly payment customized to fit your budget. Our welder financing services allow professionals to outfit their shop with the right welding machines and systems to serve customers. Whether you need a new MIG welder, a rental TIG welder, a virtual welding training simulator or something else, rent-to-own welders from leading brands such as Lincoln Electric and Miller are a great solution.

It's never been easier to afford the equipment you need to grow your business.
Apply in just four minutes and get real approval in seconds - there's no hard credit pull and no documents are needed.

Benefits of Lease-to-Own Welders

A welding machine rental is great for short-term and long-term business needs. Welder leases and rentals let companies stay on top of the latest welding technology without draining their operating budget by paying upfront, in full for new machines. At the end of the lease period, you can either purchase the welding equipment outright or return it to WeldingMart. You can also buy the equipment anytime within the first year of your lease - see below for more details.

Welder rentals can also have tax benefits. In many cases, the payments you make when you lease or finance a welding machine for business or educational purposes are tax-deductible. This frees up even more resources to get the equipment, supplies and personnel that welding businesses need.

 

More Information

Welding machine financing is available 24/7 so you can apply whenever it's convenient for you. It will only take about four minutes of your time.

Once approved, you'll have the option to select the term that best fits your budget and, if approved for more than you request, our calculator makes it easy to see how your payments change for any additional items you add to your lease. eDocs are available immediately, allowing you to order your new gear within minutes.

Lincoln Flextec 500X/ Power Feed 84 Heavy Duty Ready-Pak - K3608-3

 

The Lincoln Flextec 500X/ Power Feed 84 Heavy Duty Ready-Pak represents a premium welding solution designed specifically for demanding industrial environments including shipyards, construction sites, and fabrication shops. This complete system combines the powerful Flextec 500X multi-process welder with the advanced Power Feed 84 wire feeder, creating an integrated package that arrives fully assembled and mounted on a cart for immediate deployment. The sophisticated Power Feed 84 feeder offers enhanced synergic pulse capabilities that optimize welding parameters automatically, while the ergonomic Magnum PRO Curve gun delivers industrial-grade performance with operator comfort during extended welding sessions.

The Flextec 500X power source features standard basic pulse Metal Inert Gas capability with dedicated weld modes optimized for carbon steel, stainless steel, aluminum, and metalcore electrodes, providing enhanced versatility without sacrificing operational simplicity. Lincoln Electric's innovative CrossLinc technology enables comprehensive remote control of the machine from hundreds of feet away without requiring additional control cables. This advanced capability significantly simplifies system setup while enhancing operational efficiency and workplace safety by reducing cable clutter on jobsites. The straightforward user interface further emphasizes the system's focus on simplicity, allowing operators to quickly configure welding parameters and begin production with minimal setup time.

Engineered for exceptional reliability in challenging conditions, the Flextec 500X Ready-Pak carries an IP23 rating that ensures consistent performance in outdoor environments such as construction sites and shipyards. The system is also Desert Duty rated for operation in extreme temperatures up to 55°C, maintaining functionality even in the harshest environmental conditions. Internal components feature durable trayed and potted printed circuit boards that provide comprehensive protection for electronic systems against environmental factors. The system's flexibility extends to process compatibility, supporting all major welding processes including Stick, Tungsten Inert Gas, Metal Inert Gas, Flux-Cored, and Gouging applications. The power source is ArcLink enabled, providing enhanced synergic pulse modes through the Power Feed 84, while specialized Stick welding modes are optimized for both cellulosic and low hydrogen electrodes. The Touch-start Tungsten Inert Gas functionality delivers clean, contamination-free arc initiation without high frequency interference, making this Ready-Pak an exceptionally versatile and advanced solution for diverse industrial welding applications requiring premium process control and weld quality.
