ESAB® Rebel™ EMP 285ic MIG/TIG/Stick Welder 0558102554
The ESAB® Rebel™ EMP 285ic is a 300 amp MIG, DC TIG, and Stick welder that can run up to 1/16 diameter welding wire. It operates off of standard household 120 volt OR 230 volt input power and weighs only 70 pounds. It comes complete with everything you need to start MIG or Stick welding, except the shielding gas. It is capable of DC TIG welding with OPTIONAL TIG torch. The Rebel 285ic EMP accepts 4 inch (2 pound), 8 inch (10 pound) and 12 inch (33 pound) spools of MIG welding wire and comes with a 4 roll drive system.
Rebel's advanced, welder-inspired design sets it apart from all other multiprocess welders on the market. ESAB starts with sMIG technology that actually adapts the MIG arc characteristics to your unique welding style. Should you change your technique while welding, sMIG will automatically adjust on the fly. The 285ic has exceptional lift-arc DC TIG performance down to 5 amps. Smooth, stable Stick welding arc performance is consistent even on difficult-to-weld E6010 and E7018 electrodes. Combine all of this with a bright, bold 4.3 inch LED color display and you've got a go anywhere, do anything multiprocess welder that is second to none.

Features
SHADE LEVEL 4 / 9 - 13 - With a seamless shade level adjustment
from DIN 9 to 13, the
optrel neo p550
is the perfect solution for all popular
welding applications.
TRUE COLOR VIEW - The specially developed UV/IR filter

SENSITIVITY ADJUSTMENT - allows operator to infinitely change lens switching sensitivity for varying ambient light conditions or outdoor welding in sunlight.
DELAY FUNCTION - After shutdown of the welding arc,
the ADF momentarily stays closed to
protect eyes from the strong afterglow
of the welding seam.

optrel neo
p550
is one of the lightest auto darkening
welding helmets available. Its ergonomic
design minimizes strain on the head
and neck, ensuring comfort throughout
the work day.
