The Flextec® 500X/ Flex Feed 84 Heavy Duty One-Pak multi-process welder is a powerful welding machine that delivers up to 500 amps of welding power using advanced inverter technology. With its rugged construction, this welder is perfect for use in shipyards, construction sites, and fabrication shops.
Setting up and operating the Flextec 500X is incredibly easy, making it ideal for both indoor and outdoor heavy-duty applications. It comes with basic pulse MIG capability and offers various weld modes for carbon steel, stainless steel, aluminum, and metalcore electrodes.
One of its standout features is the CrossLinc® technology, which allows you to control the machine from a distance of hundreds of feet without the need for a control cable. This eliminates the hassle of extra cables and provides a simple system setup.
The Flextec 500X welder is highly reliable and well-suited for outdoor environments, thanks to its IP 23 rating. It is also Desert Duty® rated, meaning it can operate efficiently even in the harshest conditions, with temperatures reaching up to 55 degrees Celsius. Additionally, the welder has durable trayed and potted PC boards for enhanced electronic environmental protection.
This welder offers great flexibility as it is a multi-process power source that caters to all your welding needs. It is compatible with all 42VAC wire feeders for MIG and Flux-Cored welding and is equipped with Arclink® enabled power source for synergic pulse modes. With CrossLinc, you can remotely control CV and CC processes without the need for extra cables.
Furthermore, the Flextec 500X provides optimized stick welding for both cellulosic and low hydrogen electrodes, as well as touch-start TIG for contamination-free starts without high frequency.
The CrossLinc technology compatibility of this welder brings added benefits, eliminating the need for control cables and enabling remote procedure setting at the feeder to improve weld quality. This feature also reduces trips to the power source to adjust settings, increasing arc time and enhancing safety by reducing clutter on the jobsite.
Amazing experience every time. I run a business and every time I need something whether scheduled or last minute I’m taken care of. Easy customer service and product handoff and refills, only place to go!
Always helpful, prompt and informative service. I'm a business owner that needs reliable and professional service to counter the chaos of my work week. Knowing that I can go to Josef for supplies (and with questions the never make me feel dumb for asking) and they're open when they say they'll be, prices are stable and they always have stock. That's worth it's weight in gold. Highly recommended.
My 18-year-old son recently embarked on his journey into welding college, and as a parent, I quickly realized how overwhelming the gear requirements can be. He was told he needed a high-quality half-mask respirator, but we hadn’t the foggiest idea where to start, which brands were reputable, or how a proper fit should even feel.
From the moment we walked through the doors, we were in great hands. We were greeted by the store manager, Karen, and I cannot say enough good things about her. In an era where customer service can feel rushed, Karen was a breath of fresh air. She was incredibly patient, kind, and genuinely invested in making sure my son was safe and comfortable.
What really made Karen stand out was her hands-on approach. She didn’t just point us to a shelf; she stayed with us, helping my son try on multiple brands and various sizes. She explained the nuances of the seal and the weight of each mask, ensuring he chose the one he liked best rather than just the most expensive one. Beyond the mask itself, she took the time to educate us on the different filter ratings, explaining exactly what he’d need for his specific classes.
To our surprise, Karen also mentioned a student discount, which is a huge help for anyone just starting out in trade school. It is clear that Karen doesn’t just manage a store—she builds relationships and supports the next generation of tradespeople.
Thank you, Karen, for turning a confusing shopping trip into an amazing, educational experience. You have earned our loyalty! If you are a student or a parent of one, do yourself a favor and go see Karen. This shop provides top-tier service and truly treats their customers like family. We will be back for all his future welding needs!
How you even run a business , you should educate your staff (the person with glasses) do not know how to treat customers. So unprofessional. They didn't refill the oxygen cylinder brand new with Dot -3 regulation marked on it.

Incredible service and very prompt. Left with all my supply needed without any hassle at all. Would recommend for all welding supply needs to any individual or business
