Miller 193701 V-Knurl Drive Roll for 3/16 Inch Wire

The Miller 193701 is a specialized V-Knurl drive roll engineered for heavy-duty industrial welding applications. Designed to accommodate 3/16 inch (4.8 mm) wire, this component is essential for operators utilizing large-diameter hard-shelled cored wires. In high-amperage welding scenarios where wire feeding consistency is paramount, the quality of the drive roll directly impacts arc stability and weld quality. This genuine Miller Electric part ensures that your wire feeding system operates at peak efficiency, minimizing downtime caused by feed issues.

The V-Knurl geometry is specifically selected for cored wires. Unlike smooth groove rolls used for solid wires, or U-groove rolls used for soft aluminum, the V-Knurl features textured teeth that grip the hard shell of flux-cored or metal-cored wires. This positive traction is necessary to push heavy 3/16-inch wire through the liner and gun cable without slippage. Slippage in the drive system can lead to burn-back, erratic arcs, and inconsistent penetration, all of which compromise the structural integrity of the weld.
