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.
