0558102411 - ESAB Rebel Wire Spool Brake and Hub Assembly Kit

Restore Precision Wire Feeding with the ESAB Spool Hub Kit

The ESAB Wire Spool Hub Kit (0558102411) is an essential maintenance component designed specifically for the ESAB Rebel series of multi-process welders. In any MIG welding operation, the consistency of wire delivery is paramount to achieving a stable arc and a high-quality weld. The spool hub acts as the foundation of this delivery system, holding the wire spool in place and applying the necessary braking tension to prevent the spool from spinning freely when the trigger is released.

Over time, the friction components and mechanical parts of the spool hub can wear down due to the weight of heavy wire spools and the heat of the industrial environment. A worn hub often leads to "birdnesting"—where the wire unspools uncontrollably inside the machine—or erratic wire feeding speeds that cause burn-back or sputtering. This genuine ESAB replacement kit addresses these issues directly by providing a complete overhaul of the spool holding mechanism.

Engineered to the exact specifications of the original equipment, this kit ensures that your 4-inch or 8-inch wire spools fit securely and rotate smoothly. The included brake mechanism allows operators to fine-tune the tension, ensuring that the wire stops immediately when welding ceases, minimizing waste and downtime. Whether you are operating an ESAB Rebel EMP 215ic, 235ic, or another model in the Rebel lineup, this hub kit is the correct OEM solution for maintaining factory performance.

Installation is straightforward, allowing maintenance personnel or operators to swap out the old assembly quickly and get the machine back into production. By using genuine ESAB parts, you ensure the longevity of your equipment and avoid the compatibility headaches often associated with generic aftermarket replacements. Keep your Rebel running at peak efficiency with this critical repair kit.
