I will be installing a 50amp circuit for a 240v lincoln arc-welder. Lincoln calls for slow blow fuses or a slow blow/trip circuit breaker for the welder.
Do they make a slow trip breaker? Would a HACR breaker work?

all breakers take their time any way a standard one like 480 sparky said is all you need:)

The HACR rating has nothing to do with the speed of the breaker. Since about 1995, all UL489 breakers are HACR rated even if they do not carry a separate label.
