ESAB Ruffian ES 150G Engine Driven Welder

ESAB Ruffian ES 150G EDW

Lightweight, powerful, all-in-one DC Stick welding machine and AC generator combination. 

As a welder, Ruffian uses inverter technology to provide up to 150 A of reliable welding power at 60% duty cycle in a very stable arc that helps avoid rework. As an AC generator, Ruffian uses a 14 HP Kohler® engine to deliver up to 4.5 kW starting power. 120 VAC and 240 VAC outlets provide versatility to run lights, grinders, hand tools – even light-duty plasma cutters and MIG/TIG welders – and to use as emergency backup.

The weld module of this unit is identical to that of the ESAB Rogue 180i, which means you get a welder that has already stood the test of time.
