Is your wire feeder struggling to maintain a consistent speed? Are you experiencing erratic arcs or frequent bird-nesting? It might be time to inspect your drive rolls. The Tweco 376246-013 Drive Roll Kit is the factory-authentic replacement solution for welders running 1/16" and 5/64" wire. Over time, the grooves in drive rolls can wear down, losing their ability to grip the wire effectively. This leads to operators increasing the tension knob unnecessarily, which strains the motor and deforms the wire. Replacing your rolls is a simple, cost-effective maintenance task that restores your machine to peak performance.
This kit is designed for 2-roll drive systems, providing the traction needed to push heavy wire through the gun cable smoothly. The dual-groove design or specific sizing (depending on the exact sub-variant of the kit) ensures that you have the right contact surface for the wire diameter you are running. 1/16-inch and 5/64-inch wires are substantial sizes often used in heavy equipment repair and fabrication; they require a drive system that is in top condition to prevent feeding issues. Installing this kit helps ensure that your wire feed speed matches your voltage setting perfectly, giving you the control you need over the weld puddle.
Welders Supply Company recommends keeping a spare drive roll kit on hand. When you switch wire sizes for a new job, having the correct rolls immediately available prevents the temptation to use "close enough" sizes that result in poor weld quality. This Tweco kit is built to OEM standards, guaranteeing durability and precise fitment. Don't let worn consumables compromise your welds—upgrade your feed mechanism with genuine Tweco parts.
