BOC unleashes the “Beast” welding workhorse

Press Releases

BOC will demonstrate renewable hydrogen production, storage, supply and refuelling capabilities in a remote environment

The Beast is the first release in BOC’s revamped Smootharc welding range, with more products set to be announced in 2021.  

Tony Newnham, Head of the BOC Welding Business says for many welders working in medium to heavy engineering and manufacturing, the “Beast”, BOC’s most powerful MIG MAG yet, would be considered a dream Christmas present.  

“The Beast is a true workhorse – the biggest in our Smootharc range. It’s versatile, robust and simple to operate – with an inverter-based power source that offers a high duty cycle for optimal results.  

“It’s great value for money for its size, with affordable upgrade options from standard gas-cooled welder, to water-cooled for increased productivity and even longer weld times.  

“Designed to withstand the toughest environment conditions, it is housed in a steel case with large wheels making it easy to manoeuvre around the workshop or site.   

“BOC’s Smootharc welding range is one of the most comprehensive in Australia, and has been well-known in workshops for several decades – with welders to suit all levels and applications, from heavy industry right through to DIY home jobs. 

“We look forward to raising the curtain on new Smootharc products in 2021 – and encourage manufacturers to get in touch with our technical welding specialists for advice on the best products and shielding gases to improve productivity and safety.”  

The Smootharc Advance II MIG 555R complies to AS/NZS 60974-1 and IEC/EN 60974-10 and is backed by a three-year conditional warranty. It comes with a full set of accessories, a separate wire feeder and 10m inter-connecting cable. 

Available to purchase today from BOC on 131 262 or visit www.boc.com.au.
