The POWER MIG® 256 welder is designed for MIG and flux-cored welding in light industrial job shop fabrication, maintenance, or repair work. For a limited time, when you purchase this welder, you'll receive a $700 VISA gift card rebate. The POWER MIG® 256 sets the standard for MIG and flux-cored welding in this industry.
It features Diamond Core Technology™, which provides a forgiving arc, excellent out-of-position arc stability, low spatter, and a wide voltage sweet spot for steel, stainless steel, or aluminum. The MAXTRAC® cast aluminum industrial wire drive ensures regulated wire feed speed control and reliable connections. Digital meters display your preset voltage and wire feed speed, and during welding, the actual voltage is shown.
The new Magnum® PRO gun and cable, measuring 15 ft. (4.5 m), make it easy to reach your work. The Copper Plus® contact tips have a larger tip diameter and mass to enhance heat dissipation and increase tip life. Additionally, the POWER MIG® 256 is spool gun ready for the premium Magnum® 250LX gun and can be used with the Magnum® SG (adapter required).
For added convenience, the 208/230V model includes a 115V auxiliary receptacle to power additional equipment in your work area. The welder also has useful features such as the Coil Claw™ Cable Management system, a top-mounted gun expendables tray, and an all-metal case front.
Please note that the POWER MIG® 256 cannot be powered by an engine-driven welder.

Josef Gas gives first class customer service. They are thebest in giving technical support. Their knowledge in the various welding processes surpasses all other welding stores that I have done business with over the past 10 years.
They have an in-house welding specialist who has real-world experience and is results orientated. His recommendations I have benefited for many time.
Prices are very competitive and most things are available in store.
I’ve had a great experience every time I’ve worked with the team here. Karan, Surbhi, and Nathan at the order desk are always so helpful and on top of things. They respond quickly, offer practical solutions, and make the whole process smooth and stress-free. It’s rare to find a team that’s not only efficient but also genuinely friendly. Really appreciate their consistency and commitment to good service — keeps me coming back!
The customer service here is A1 and the prices cannot be beat! I have had the pleasure of coming here for years and they treat me like family everytime.
I highly recommend Josef Gas, you will NEVER be disappointed.
when you first walk in, you notice right away that it is the nicest show room in the GTA, the staff is courteous and helpful when you enter ( Karen) , and if you have a welding question , Jordi is there to answer any questions you may have, i highly recommend Josef
I’m shocked, I was looking for a particular set of electrodes I couldn’t find anywhere in the GTA for decent prices, but I found these guys and they made the entire process extremely simple and smooth, I got what I was looking for at half my original price, and left away satisfied.
