171435-002 - Tweco .030/.035 V-Groove Drive Roll for Fabricator Series

Keep Your Wire Running Smoothly

There is nothing more frustrating than a wire feeder that slips, stutters, or jams right in the middle of a bead. If you are running a Thermal Arc or Tweco Fabricator welder (like the 181i, 211i, or 252i), a worn-out drive roll is often the culprit. The Tweco 171435-002 Drive Roll Kit is the direct replacement you need to get your machine feeding like new again.

This roll is designed for the daily driver wires: .030" and .035" solid MIG wire. It features a V-groove design, which is exactly what you want for solid steel or stainless wire. It grips the wire firmly to push it through the liner but doesn't chew it up like a knurled roller would. This means less metal shaving dust in your liner and smoother arc starts.

Installation is tool-free and takes seconds. Just pop the old one off, check which side matches your wire size (the size is stamped right on the side), and slide the new one on. It's a reversible part, so you essentially get two drive rolls in one. Whether you are doing auto body work with .030 or structural frames with .035, this kit keeps your wire moving and your welds looking professional.
