Review on 🔗 Welding Adapter Linking Machine by Brian Garrett

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Bought as an upgrade to an older welder that has been damaged by user

I was asked a 15 year old 250 amp MIG welder fix for someone i know. By examining the cost of repairing/replacing damaged parts with "similar" original parts (many of the original parts were no longer available or much more expensive than "like original" parts) and leaving the cost to the "buyer"; They decided to just buy a new inverter welder for twice the repair cost of the old one and get a much better welder. I was told I could keep the welder and do whatever I wanted with it. I decided to bypass the original design and switch to a European quick connect design that would 'fix' some damaged parts by replacing a more expensive gun and electrical jumpers/connectors that are no longer available. I had to make a very slight modification to make an electrical connection to this outlet. The welder is now working properly. I even thought that the welder was 15 years old. It was little used before being damaged and has sat in the corner of an unused shop for the last 10 years. The total cost of the upgrade/repair for me; under $150 including even a 260 amp MIG gun which is one of the best European/Asian makes/models.

Pros
  • LONG LIFE --- Because of the high quality material the weld plate adapter has a good quality guarantee, long life
Cons
  • I'll write later
