OVERVIEW

Technical Overview of the ESAB Guide Tube (0558001078)

The ESAB Guide Tube (Part Number: 0558001078) is a critical component designed for the MobileFeed 200AVS wire feeding system. This precision-engineered accessory serves as the pathway for welding wire as it travels through the drive roll mechanism, ensuring alignment and stability before entering the gun liner. The specific geometry of this guide tube is tailored to accommodate wire diameters of 0.9mm (.035"), 1.0mm, and 1.2mm (.045"), making it a versatile choice for various welding applications.

Designated as "Knurled," this guide tube is typically associated with setups utilizing knurled drive rolls, which are standard for feeding flux-cored or metal-cored wires. These wires require a feed system that provides positive traction without crushing the tubular wire structure. The guide tube's internal dimensions are machined to tight tolerances to prevent wire shaving or buckling (bird-nesting) immediately after the drive rolls, a common issue in portable wire feeders subjected to field conditions.

Proper maintenance of the wire feed path is essential for arc stability. A worn guide tube can cause erratic wire feeding, leading to burn-backs or unstable arc characteristics. This genuine ESAB part ensures that the MobileFeed 200AVS operates at peak efficiency, maintaining the manufacturer's specifications for wire alignment and feed pressure. It is easily replaceable during routine maintenance intervals.

FAQ

This guide tube is designed specifically for the ESAB MobileFeed 200AVS wire feeder.

It supports wire diameters of 0.9mm (.035"), 1.0mm, and 1.2mm (.045").

Knurled typically refers to the type of drive rolls this guide tube is paired with, often used for flux-cored or soft wires to provide better traction.

If you experience erratic wire feeding, see visible wear or grooves inside the tube, or if the wire is shaving as it passes through, it is time to replace it.

Yes, this is a genuine ESAB OEM replacement part, SKU 0558001078.

While the size range may fit some aluminum wires, knurled systems are usually for flux-core. Aluminum typically requires U-groove rolls and specific nylon or Teflon guides to prevent shaving. Check your machine manual for aluminum-specific setups.
