0367556004 - ESAB U-Groove Drive Roll for .040-3/64 Aluminum Wire

Reliable Aluminum Wire Feeding

Welding aluminum requires precision, not just in technique but in the equipment used. The ESAB Feed Roll (.040-3/64 AL U-SOFT) is an essential component for any fabricator working with soft aluminum MIG wires. Unlike standard V-groove rolls designed for hard steel, this specialized U-groove roll cradles the wire, providing the necessary friction to push it through the liner without deforming or flattening its cross-section.

Using the correct drive roll is the first step in preventing common aluminum feeding issues such as birdnesting, erratic arc starts, and burn-backs. This genuine ESAB part is engineered to tight tolerances, ensuring that your wire feeder operates at peak performance. Whether you are welding thin gauge aluminum sheet or heavier structural components, consistent wire delivery is key to a high-quality weld bead.

Key Benefits

• Smooth Operation: Minimizes friction and drag within the liner by maintaining the wire's round shape.


• Reduced Downtime: Prevents feeding jams that stop production and waste expensive consumables.


• Versatile Sizing: Accommodates both .040" and 3/64" diameter wires, covering the most common aluminum welding applications.

Upgrade your wire feeding system with genuine ESAB parts from Josef Gas to ensure your aluminum projects are completed efficiently and to the highest standard.
