Simple Yet Efficient
The Lincoln Flextex 450 might be simple, but trust us, it’s capable of a lot! The Flextec 450 is a multi-process welder that is great for various applications. Delivering 500 amps of welding power makes this little guy suitable for working in the home workshop or on the construction site. With an IP23 rating, you’re all set to take the Lincoln Flextec 450 with you outdoors to jobs on-site.
By far, one of its most impressive features is the improvements to inverter technology that we see in the Flextec 450. With faster arc response and smoother arc action, you’re getting a much better weld, all while the welder is using a fraction of the power old inverter technology required. In addition to saving you power consumption, the Flextec 450 is also more convenient; being 50% smaller and lighter, you can take it with you wherever you go.

Lincoln Flextec 450 Features
The Lincoln Flextec 450 stands out as a flexible, portable, multi-process welder that can be taken with you wherever you need to go. Here are some features of the Flextec 450 that we think stand out:
VRD-Voltage Reduction Device
Welding can be dangerous, and having a welding machine that prioritises the operator’s safety is essential. VRD is a function that reduces OCV (open circuit voltage) when the machine is not actively welding. By reducing the OCV to lower levels, the risk of the operator electrocuting themselves is significantly reduced. Thus, the VRD provides an extra layer of protection for the user.
Desert Duty Rated
One bonus of the Lincoln Flextex 450 is that it’s Desert Durt Rated, meaning that it’s rated for extreme temperature operation conditions. This benefits individuals who need to use the welder on the go. For instance, individuals who work on construction sites may need a welder that can handle being in the sun for long periods of time. Well, the Flextex 450 can handle the heat, being able to take extreme temperature operations up to 55°C.
Compact, Durable Design
We already know that the Lincoln Flextec 450 is designed to take heat, but it’s also designed to handle a lot more. The Flextex 450 has a tough exterior case to ensure that it can withstand harsh field environments for added safety. Accidents happen; we all know that; that’s why the Flextec 450 is designed to handle accidents and still function perfectly afterwards. With an IP23 rating and solid build, this welder will handle solid objects larger than 12.5mm hitting it and even cope with water being spilled on it. The perfect welding companion for on-the-go work.
