OVERVIEW

Smooth and Reliable Feeding for Heavy Welding

When you are running heavy wire, specifically 3/32" (2.5mm), the consistency of your wire feed is the heartbeat of your operation. The ESAB Feed Roll Twin 2.5mm (Part Number 0218522480) is designed to keep that heartbeat strong and steady. Whether you are tackling massive structural steel projects or automated submerged arc welding, this drive roll ensures your wire moves from the spool to the puddle without hesitation, slipping, or bird-nesting.

Wire slippage is a welder's nightmare, leading to burn-backs, uneven beads, and frustrating downtime. This ESAB drive roll features a precision-cut twin groove that bites into the wire just enough to push it through long conduit runs or heavy torch cables, but not so hard that it shaves or flattens the wire. The result is a smooth, stable arc that lets you focus on the weld pool rather than fighting your equipment. Made from durable, hardened steel, this roll is built to withstand the harsh environment of industrial manufacturing, resisting the grooving and wear that cheaper alternatives succumb to.

Swapping out your drive rolls is a quick maintenance task that pays huge dividends in weld quality. If you are switching your setup to run 2.5mm wire, or if your current rolls are worn out and slipping, this genuine ESAB replacement is the exact fit you need. It restores your machine's performance to factory standards, ensuring that every inch of wire is delivered with the precision required for code-quality welds. Don't let a worn $50 part ruin a $5000 weld—stick with genuine ESAB parts for reliable performance.

FAQ

This feed roll is specifically designed for 2.5mm or 3/32 inch welding wire.

Yes, this is a genuine ESAB OEM replacement part, number 0218522480.

It typically refers to the groove configuration or the specific type of heavy-duty ESAB feeder head (like A2/A6 systems) that utilizes twin or dual-groove rolls.

Yes, provided the flux-cored wire is 2.5mm (3/32") in diameter and the feeder tension is adjusted correctly to prevent crushing the wire.

Drive rolls should be replaced when the grooves become worn and can no longer grip the wire effectively without excessive tension, or if the teeth/knurling (if applicable) are dull.

It is manufactured from hardened steel to withstand the wear and friction of feeding metal welding wire.

No, it is specific to certain ESAB heavy-duty wire feed units. Please check your equipment's parts manual for compatibility with part number 0218522480.

Using the wrong size can cause wire slippage (if too big) or wire deformation and shaving (if too small), both of which lead to poor arc stability and liner clogging.
