OVERVIEW

Smooth Feeding for Superior Welds

Nothing ruins a good weld bead faster than a stuttering wire feeder. If you are experiencing inconsistent wire speeds or slipping wire, it might be time to replace your drive rolls. The Tweco 375980-092 Drive Roll Kit is the heavy-duty solution for welders running .045-inch solid wire. Designed with a classic V-Groove, these rolls are built to grab onto hard wires like mild steel and stainless steel, pushing them through the liner with authority and consistency.

Why does the groove shape matter? Using the wrong roll for your wire is a common rookie mistake. Knurled rolls chew up solid wire, creating metal shavings that clog your liner. U-Groove rolls are too soft for steel. This V-Groove kit is the "Goldilocks" solution for solid wire—providing just the right amount of traction without deforming the wire shape. This ensures that when the wire hits the contact tip, it makes perfect electrical contact, giving you that smooth, sizzling arc you're looking for.

This kit comes with the rolls you need to get back up and running fast. Whether you are fabricating structural steel, working on heavy equipment, or performing production MIG welding, reliable feeding is non-negotiable. Don't let worn-out equipment slow down your production line. Swap out your old, grooved-out rollers with this genuine Tweco replacement kit and feel the difference in your torch. Consistent feeding means consistent penetration and bead appearance, making your job easier and your welds better.

  • Optimized for Solid Wire: Perfect geometry for .045" steel and stainless wires.
  • Durable Construction: Hardened steel resists wear from thousands of pounds of wire.
  • Genuine Tweco Quality: Guaranteed fit for compatible feeders.

FAQ

This kit is designed specifically for .045-inch (1.2 mm) welding wire.

V-Groove rolls are designed for solid wires, such as mild steel (ER70S-6) or stainless steel. They should not be used for flux-cored or aluminum wires.

No, it is recommended to use Knurled drive rolls for flux-cored wire to prevent crushing the hollow wire while ensuring adequate grip.

Yes, this is a 2-roll kit intended to replace the drive rolls in a compatible feeder system.

Wire slippage can also be caused by a clogged liner, worn contact tip, or incorrect tension settings. Ensure the entire feeding path is clear.

Drive rolls should be inspected regularly. If the grooves appear worn, rounded, or if you cannot get traction without over-tightening the tensioner, they should be replaced.

No, drive rolls are model-specific. Please verify your wire feeder's manual or parts list to ensure the 375980-092 is the correct part number for your machine.

No, aluminum wire requires U-Groove rolls to prevent shaving and deformation of the soft aluminum.
