0459906901 - ESAB Warrior YardFeed 200 Water-Cooled Portable Wire Feeder

Compact and Rugged Wire Feeding Solution

The ESAB Warrior YardFeed 200W CSA is a specialized wire feeder designed to tackle the most demanding industrial environments. Built with the needs of shipyards, offshore platforms, and heavy construction sites in mind, this unit prioritizes portability and protection. The "YardFeed" designation highlights its ability to function reliably in "yards" where dust, moisture, and rough handling are daily occurrences. Unlike standard bench feeders, this unit features a fully enclosed, impact-resistant casing that shields the internal drive mechanism and the wire spool from the elements, ensuring consistent weld quality even in less-than-ideal conditions.

This specific model, the 200W, is the water-cooled variant, making it an excellent choice for high-amperage applications where torch cooling is essential for duty cycle management and operator comfort. Despite its heavy-duty capabilities, the unit is remarkably compact, designed to accommodate 200mm (8-inch) wire spools. This reduced footprint allows the feeder to be carried through manholes and into confined spaces where larger feeders simply cannot fit. It is the perfect companion for the ESAB Warrior 400i and 500i power sources, extending the reach of your welding operations significantly.

Reliability is at the core of the Warrior YardFeed. It utilizes a robust 4-roll drive system that delivers smooth, slip-free wire feeding, which is critical when working with long torch cables or softer wires like aluminum. The interface is designed for simplicity, allowing operators to adjust wire feed speed and voltage easily, even while wearing gloves. With CSA approval, you can trust that this equipment meets rigorous safety standards required for Canadian industrial operations.

Key Benefits for Industrial Users

• Extreme Portability: Small form factor fits through standard manholes and tight access points.
• Element Protection: Fully enclosed shell keeps wire dry and clean, reducing weld defects.
• High Performance: Water-cooling capability supports heavy fabrication tasks without overheating.
