Feeding aluminum wire can be a headache for even the most experienced welders. The wire is soft, prone to kinking, and easily crushed by standard drive rolls. The ESAB Bogie Drive Roll (SKU 0366902886) is the solution designed to take the frustration out of your aluminum projects. Sized specifically for 3/64" wire, this roller features a smooth U-Groove that cradles the wire rather than biting into it. This ensures positive feeding traction without flattening the wire or creating metal shavings that can clog your liner.
Built for Performance
What sets this roller apart is the "W Bb" specification—meaning it comes equipped with high-quality ball bearings. Unlike bushing-style rollers that can wear out and develop wobble over time, these ball bearings ensure the roller spins true and smooth, hour after hour. This reduction in friction means your wire feeder motor doesn't have to work as hard, and the wire delivery remains consistent, resulting in a more stable arc and better-looking welds.
Installation and Use
This bogie wheel is designed for quick installation into compatible ESAB wire feeders and welding tractors. Whether you are setting up for a long automated run or manual fabrication, using the correct drive roll is the first step to quality control. Don't risk downtime with worn-out or incorrect rollers; equip your machine with this genuine ESAB part to ensure your 3/64" aluminum wire glides smoothly from the spool to the puddle.
