OVERVIEW

Precision Wire Feeding for the ESAB Caddy Mig C200i

The ESAB 0349312836 Feed Roll is a precision-engineered replacement component for the wire drive system of the ESAB Caddy Mig C200i. In MIG welding, the consistency of the wire feed speed is paramount to achieving a stable arc and a high-quality weld deposit. This OEM feed roll is manufactured to exacting tolerances to ensure that your wire is driven smoothly and accurately through the torch liner, regardless of the material being welded.

This specific roller is a combination unit, offering distinct groove geometries to handle different wire types. The V-Groove section is machined to grip solid hard wires, specifically 0.023" (0.6mm) and 0.030" (0.8mm) diameters. The sharp edges of the V-profile bite slightly into steel and stainless steel wires to provide positive traction. Conversely, the U-Groove section is dedicated to 0.040" (1.0mm) aluminum wire. The smooth, rounded profile of the U-groove increases the surface area of contact with the soft aluminum wire, allowing for effective feeding force without the risk of shaving the wire or deforming its cross-section, which causes friction in the liner.

Maintenance of the drive system is often overlooked, but worn drive rolls are a common cause of erratic welding performance. Over time, the grooves on a feed roll can wear down, leading to slippage and the need for excessive tensioner pressure, which can damage the wire. Replacing your feed roll with this genuine ESAB part restores the factory performance of your Caddy Mig C200i. It is an ideal spare part to keep on hand for fabricators who frequently switch between steel and aluminum applications in the field.

FAQ

This feed roll is designed specifically for the ESAB Caddy Mig C200i portable inverter welding machine.

It supports 0.6mm and 0.8mm wires on the V-groove setting, and 1.0mm wires on the U-groove setting.

The V-groove is for hard wires like steel and stainless to provide grip. The U-groove is for soft wires like aluminum to provide traction without deforming or shaving the wire.

While V-grooves can sometimes feed flux-cored wire, knurled rolls are typically recommended for flux-cored to prevent crushing. However, for the Caddy Mig C200i, this is the standard multi-purpose roll supplied.

You typically remove the roll and flip it or align the wire with the specific groove corresponding to your wire diameter and type.

Yes, this is a genuine ESAB replacement part, number 0349312836.

Yes, when using the U-groove for aluminum, you should also switch to a Teflon or polymer liner to prevent friction and wire contamination.

Using a V-groove on aluminum can deform the soft wire, causing it to become oval-shaped, which increases friction in the tip and liner, leading to feeding issues.
