The Tweco 870560PKD Drive Roll Gear is a critical replacement component designed to maintain the integrity of your MIG wire feeding system. In industrial welding environments, the internal gears of a wire feeder are subjected to constant torque and friction. Over time, the teeth on the drive roll gear can wear down, leading to slippage, erratic wire speeds, and ultimately, poor weld quality. This genuine OEM part is engineered to exact specifications, ensuring a perfect fit and restoring the mechanical transfer of power from the motor to the drive rolls.
Designed specifically for 2-roll (2R) plate systems found in various Tweco, Thermal Arc, and ESAB wire feeders, this gear is manufactured from high-durability materials to withstand the rigors of daily fabrication work. Replacing a worn gear is often the solution to diagnosing mysterious wire feed issues that persist even after changing liners and contact tips. By ensuring the drive rolls spin at the precise speed dictated by the motor, this gear helps maintain the arc stability required for professional-grade welds.
Maintenance professionals understand that the reliability of a welding station depends on the sum of its parts. Using genuine Tweco replacement parts guarantees compatibility and longevity, reducing downtime associated with equipment failure. Whether you are refurbishing an older machine or performing preventative maintenance, the 870560PKD is the correct specification for restoring your 2-roll drive assembly to factory performance.
