375980-057 - Tweco 4-Roll Drive Kit .052/1/16

Upgrade Your Feed with the Tweco 375980-057 Kit

Welders know that the secret to a consistent bead often lies in the wire feeder. If your wire isn't feeding smoothly, your arc will be unstable, leading to spatter, poor penetration, and frustration. The Tweco 375980-057 Drive Roll Kit is designed to solve these problems for welders running .052" or 1/16" wire in a 4-roll feeder system. These larger wire diameters are commonly used in heavy fabrication, structural welding, and hardfacing, where high deposition rates are required. Moving this amount of metal requires a robust drive system, and this kit delivers exactly that.

The "4RL" designation indicates that this kit is intended for 4-roll drive assemblies. Unlike 2-roll systems that rely on a single pair of rollers to push the wire, a 4-roll system uses two pairs. This doubles the contact area, allowing for excellent grip without needing to crank down the tension knob. Excessive tension can flatten the wire, causing it to drag in the contact tip and wear out liners prematurely. With the Tweco 375980-057, you get the perfect balance of grip and wire integrity. The rolls are precision-machined to the exact specifications of .052 and 1/16 inch wires, ensuring the wire sits perfectly in the groove for optimal driving force.

This kit is ideal for professional welders who demand reliability from their equipment. Whether you are working in a shop or out in the field, having the right drive rolls installed prevents the dreaded "bird-nesting" at the feeder inlet and ensures the wire travels smoothly through the gun cable. When you are pushing 1/16" wire, the resistance is significant; these drive rolls are built to handle that load without slipping. Keeping a spare kit on hand is also a smart move for any serious operation, ensuring that production doesn't halt due to worn-out feed components.

Invest in the longevity of your welding machine and the quality of your work with genuine Tweco parts. This drive roll kit is easy to install and built to last, providing the consistent performance you need to lay down perfect welds, pass after pass.
