0445850036 - ESAB Feed Roller V-K 2.4mm (3/32") Drive Roll

Smooth Feeding for Heavy-Duty Welding

Struggling with an unstable arc or stuttering wire feed? The culprit is often a worn-out drive roll. The ESAB Feed Roller V-K 2.4mm (0445850036) is the factory-direct solution to restore smooth, consistent performance to your ESAB welder. When you are running heavy 2.4mm (3/32") wire, the drive system is under significant load. A worn roller can slip, causing the wire to hesitate, which leads to burn-backs, irregular bead profiles, and frustration for the operator.

This feed roller features a precision-machined groove designed to bite into the wire just enough to push it through the torch cable without shaving off metal shavings or flattening the wire. The "V-K" profile is optimized for specific wire types used in high-deposition welding. Whether you are welding thick plate or running long beads on structural components, consistent wire delivery is the foundation of a good weld. Replacing your drive rolls is one of the easiest and most effective tune-ups you can perform on your machine.

Don't let a small part compromise your big projects. If your current rollers show signs of wear—such as a rounded-out groove or inability to grip the wire even with increased tension—it is time to swap them out. This ESAB 0445850036 roller is easy to install and instantly improves the feeding characteristic of your machine. Keep your arc smooth and your spatter low by ensuring your wire feeder is equipped with fresh, correctly sized drive rolls.

Why Choose Genuine ESAB Rollers?

Generic rollers often lack the precise hardening and dimensional accuracy of OEM parts. ESAB rollers are hardened to resist wear from the constant friction of the moving wire, ensuring they last longer and perform better. This specific roller is matched perfectly to 2.4mm wire, eliminating the guesswork and constant tension adjustments associated with ill-fitting generic parts.
