0558001499 - ESAB Wire Feeder Guide Tube .025-.030

Precision Wire Feeding with ESAB Genuine Parts

The ESAB Guide Tube .025/.030 (0558001499) is a critical component for maintaining the efficiency and reliability of your MIG welding wire feed system. Designed specifically for use with smaller diameter wires ranging from 0.025 inches to 0.030 inches, this guide tube bridges the gap between the drive rolls and the beginning of the gun liner or the inlet of the feeder mechanism. Proper alignment at this stage is essential to prevent the wire from shaving, buckling, or dragging, which can lead to erratic arc stability and poor weld quality.

Manufactured to ESAB's exacting standards, this replacement part ensures a perfect fit within compatible ESAB wire feeders and MIG units. Over time, guide tubes can develop grooves or become clogged with debris, increasing friction on the wire. Replacing your guide tube with this genuine OEM part restores the smooth, low-friction path required for consistent wire delivery. Whether you are welding thin gauge sheet metal in an automotive application or performing detailed fabrication work, ensuring your wire feeder is equipped with the correct guide tube is the first step toward a defect-free weld.

This component is engineered from durable materials to withstand the constant friction of moving steel, stainless, or aluminum wires. It is an essential spare part for any professional welder using ESAB equipment setup for light-duty wire applications. By maintaining the integrity of the wire path, you protect downstream components like liners and contact tips from premature wear.
