OVERVIEW

Precision Wire Feeding for Flux-Cored Applications

The Drive Roll 2 Roll V-Knurled 035-045 is a specialized component engineered to enhance the performance of the Centrefire 305 welding system. When working with tubular wires, such as flux-cored (FCAW) or metal-cored (MCAW) consumables, standard smooth V-groove rolls often fail to provide adequate traction without excessive pressure that deforms the wire. This drive roll solves that engineering challenge with a precision-machined V-Knurled profile.

Designed specifically for wire diameters ranging from .035" (0.9mm) to .045" (1.2mm), the knurled teeth on the roller surface engage the softer outer sheath of the wire. This mechanical interlock allows for lower tension settings on the drive assembly while maintaining positive feed consistency. By reducing the crushing force required to move the wire, this roller preserves the roundness of the wire, ensuring it passes smoothly through the liner and contact tip, thereby stabilizing the arc and improving weld quality.

This component is intended for use in 2-roll drive systems, typical of the Centrefire 305 architecture. Regular inspection and replacement of drive rolls are critical for maintaining optimal machine performance, as worn knurling can lead to slippage and erratic feeding behavior. This OEM-quality replacement part ensures your equipment operates within its specified parameters for industrial fabrication tasks.

FAQ

This V-Knurled roll is designed for tubular wires, specifically Flux-Cored (FCAW) and Metal-Cored (MCAW) wires.

It supports wire diameters from .035 inches (0.9mm) to .045 inches (1.2mm).

It is not recommended. V-Knurled rolls can bite into solid wire and create metal shavings that clog liners. Use smooth V-Groove rolls for solid wire.

This drive roll is specified for the Centrefire 305 welding machine.

Flux-cored wire is hollow and softer than solid wire. A knurled roller grips it without needing high tension that would crush the wire.

Replace them when the knurling becomes worn down and the wire starts slipping, or if the groove is damaged.

This is designed for a 2-roll drive system.
