2075255 - ESAB Heavy Duty Feed Roll for 1/8 and 5/32 Inch Wire

Precision Wire Feeding for Heavy Fabrication

The ESAB 2075255 Feed Roll is a critical component for industrial welding operations utilizing large diameter wires. Specifically engineered to handle 1/8-inch (3.2mm) and 5/32-inch (4.0mm) wire sizes, this feed roll is designed to deliver the consistent traction required for high-deposition welding processes such as Submerged Arc Welding (SAW) and heavy-duty Flux-Cored Arc Welding (FCAW). In these demanding applications, even minor slippage in the wire feed mechanism can lead to significant arc instability, irregular bead profiles, and costly rework. By using genuine ESAB replacement parts, you ensure that your equipment operates at peak efficiency with the precision it was built for.

Constructed from high-grade hardened steel, this feed roll offers exceptional durability and resistance to wear. Feeding large diameter wires places substantial stress on drive components; inferior or worn rolls can quickly degrade, leading to feeding issues that interrupt production. The groove geometry of the 2075255 is precision-machined to grip the wire firmly without deforming it, ensuring smooth travel through the liner and contact tip. This balance of grip and wire integrity is essential for maintaining the electrical conductivity and arc characteristics required for code-quality welds in structural steel, shipbuilding, and pressure vessel fabrication.

Maintenance of your wire feeding system is paramount for operational reliability. Over time, the knurling or groove surface of a feed roll will naturally wear down, reducing its ability to push wire effectively against the resistance of the torch cable. Replacing your feed rolls at the first sign of wear is a proactive measure that safeguards your welding quality. This ESAB feed roll is a direct replacement part, ensuring a perfect fit with compatible ESAB wire feeder models, allowing for quick changeovers and minimal downtime.
