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 Power MIG 180 Dual MIG Welder - K3018-2

 

 

The Lincoln Power MIG 180 Dual is a professional-grade wire welder engineered to deliver exceptional performance across diverse applications, from agricultural maintenance to automotive repair and fabrication work. This versatile portable system features dual 120 or 208/230 volt input power capability, allowing you to use the same machine to weld at home, in the shop or out on the job site. It's a great choice for sheet metal and light frame autobody work, farm or small shop applications. Incorporating Lincoln's revolutionary Diamond Core Technology, the Power MIG 180 Dual produces a remarkably forgiving arc with excellent out-of-position capabilities, minimal spatter generation, and an expansive voltage sweet spot at any given wire feed speed, ensuring superior results whether working with steel, stainless steel, or aluminum materials.

The Power MIG 180 Dual features an industrial-grade cast aluminum wire drive system that establishes new standards for feeding reliability and performance. The precision dual gear-driven drive rolls deliver positive wire traction under all conditions, while patented split wire guides ensure optimal wire alignment throughout the feed path. The critical brass-to-brass gun connection enhances electrical conductivity for improved arc characteristics, and the large industrial closed-design drive motor provides substantial torque for consistent performance even in demanding applications. This comprehensive approach to wire feeding creates a robust system that minimizes the feeding issues commonly encountered in portable wire welders, delivering professional-level reliability in a compact package.

Designed with practical usability considerations at its core, the Power MIG 180 Dual incorporates a no-hassle tool-less design philosophy that simplifies routine adjustments including input power changes, wire spool mounting, wire drive service, and polarity configuration. The system comes factory-configured for spool gun compatibility, allowing users to simply remove the standard MIG gun and connect the economical Magnum PRO 100SG spool gun (available separately) for enhanced aluminum wire feeding performance. Lincoln's industry-leading approach to electronics protection includes "potted" circuit boards that seal sensitive components from environmental contaminants and a tough plastic tray system that adds structural rigidity while enhancing shock resistance, ensuring reliable operation even in demanding industrial environments where equipment durability is paramount.

 

 

Key Features

 

 

  • Diamond Core Technology delivering a forgiving arc with excellent stability and minimal spatter.
  • Industrial cast aluminum wire drive with dual gear-driven rolls for positive wire traction.
  • No-hassle tool-less design simplifying power changes, spool mounting, and polarity configuration.
  • Complete spool gun readiness for enhanced aluminum welding performance.
  • Superior circuit board protection with potted components and reinforced mounting system.
  • Patented split wire guides ensuring optimal wire alignment throughout the feed path.
  • Brass-to-brass gun connection enhancing electrical conductivity for improved arc characteristics.
  • Large industrial drive motor providing consistent torque for reliable wire feeding.
  • Versatile welding capacity handling up to 3/16" with MIG and 1/2" with flux-cored processes.
