The ESAB 28V52 Pressure Roll (2 Flat) is a precision-engineered component designed for the maintenance of ESAB wire feeding systems. In Gas Metal Arc Welding (GMAW) and Flux Cored Arc Welding (FCAW), the consistency of the wire feed speed is a primary variable controlling amperage and penetration. The pressure roll acts as the passive counterpart to the active drive roll, applying the necessary normal force to grip the welding wire without causing deformation or shaving.
This specific unit features a flat profile, commonly utilized in conjunction with grooved drive rolls to accommodate a variety of wire types. Over time, pressure rolls can develop flat spots, groove wear, or bearing fatigue, leading to erratic feeding, wire slippage, and unstable arcs. Replacing the pressure roll with a genuine ESAB 28V52 ensures that the feed mechanism operates within its original design tolerances. This component is manufactured from hardened materials to withstand the continuous friction and mechanical load inherent in industrial welding environments.
Designed specifically for ESAB wire feeders, this pressure roll integrates seamlessly into the feed assembly. Regular inspection of the pressure arm and roll is recommended as part of a preventative maintenance schedule. When installing, ensure the pressure adjustment is set correctly to prevent crushing the wire while maintaining sufficient traction.
