OVERVIEW

Smooth Feeding for Heavy-Duty Welding

Stop fighting with your wire feeder and get back to laying down perfect beads. If you are running heavier wires like .052" or 1/16", having the right drive rolls is non-negotiable. The Tweco 375980-005 Drive Roll Kit is designed to give you the traction you need without crushing your wire. Whether you are pushing solid wire or flux-cored, these rolls ensure that the wire moves smoothly from the spool to the puddle, every single time.

We all know the frustration of a slipping drive roll. It causes your arc to stutter, your puddle to freeze unexpectedly, and ruins the rhythm of your weld. Over time, the grooves on your old rollers wear down, losing their grip. Swapping them out for this fresh Tweco kit is one of the cheapest and easiest ways to improve your machine's performance immediately. This kit is built for 2-roll systems, making it a perfect fit for many Tweco and Thermal Arc fabricator units.

Why choose this kit?

  • Perfect Fit: machined specifically for .052" and 1/16" diameters.
  • Reliable Grip: hardened steel teeth or grooves grip the wire firmly.
  • Easy Install: swap out your old worn rolls in minutes.

Don't let a cheap maintenance part cost you hours in downtime or rework. Keep your wire feeding consistent and your arc stable with genuine Tweco replacement parts.

FAQ

This kit is designed specifically for .052-inch and 1/16-inch welding wires.

This kit is intended for use with 2-roll wire feed systems.

If you experience wire slippage despite correct tension settings, or if the grooves appear visibly worn or smooth, it is time to replace the rolls.

While the size may match, aluminum typically requires U-groove drive rolls to prevent deformation. Check if the groove profile is U-groove or V/Knurled before using with soft alloys.

It fits specific Tweco and Thermal Arc feeders that use the 2-roll system configuration. Check your machine's manual for part number compatibility.

Typically, drive roll kits include the rolls themselves. Inlet guides are usually sold separately or as part of a different assembly, though contents can vary.

Mismatched sizes cause poor feeding. A groove that is too large won't grip, and one that is too small will crush the wire, causing liner drag.
