Complete Welding Education Solution

The Lincoln Electric K4590-2XL Introductory Education Welding Gear Ready-Pak is the ultimate starter collection for students, apprentices, and hobbyists entering the world of welding. Curated by industry experts, this package brings together 12 essential items required for Stick, MIG, and Flux-Core welding, as well as oxyfuel cutting. By bundling these premium components, Lincoln Electric ensures that new welders have professional-grade protection and tools from day one, all stored conveniently in a purpose-built backpack.

Professional Protection

At the heart of this kit is the VIKING 1740 Series Auto-Darkening Helmet. Known for its optical clarity and reliable switching speed, this helmet reduces training time and increases productivity by allowing students to see their work clearly. The package also includes a 2X-Large Flame Retardant (FR) Cotton Jacket, which offers breathable, lightweight protection against sparks and spatter, ideal for low to medium amperage applications. Complementing the jacket are traditional MIG/Stick welding gloves and a welding beanie, ensuring comprehensive coverage.

Essential Tools & Storage

Organization is key for any student. The included Welders All-In-One Backpack is designed specifically for the trade, featuring a unique front-load capacity for the helmet and separate pockets for tools, PPE, and even a laptop or textbooks. Inside the kit, you will find the hand tools every welder needs: a chipping hammer and wire brush for slag removal, welding pliers for wire trimming, a soapstone for marking, and a fillet gauge for measuring weld sizes. Safety is further addressed with two pairs of glasses: clear ANSI Z87.1 compliant glasses for general protection and Shade 5 IR glasses for oxyfuel or plasma cutting tasks.

Ready for the Classroom

This Ready-Pak is tailored for educational environments and introductory courses. It covers the fundamental PPE and tool requirements for agricultural education, vocational schools, and maintenance training. With an amperage recommendation of 1-250 Amps, the gear is perfectly suited for the most common training processes. Invest in the K4590-2XL to ensure you are fully equipped, compliant, and ready to weld.
