Introducing a wire straightener specifically designed for the high speed processing and spooling of welding wire (TIG). As various factors like high speeds, processed material composition, wire tensile strength, roller/bearing lu- brication and inferior roller materials, amongst others, may influence the rapid wear of standard rollers available in the market place today, we are offering a wire straightener with special tungsten carbide roller sleeves with special high speed lubricated double bearings. Tungsten Carbide roller sleeves are profiled with ”V” grooves suitable for your wire specification.

Roller range is suitable for a complete wire range of 0.035” (0.88 mm) up to approximately .098” (2.4 mm) can be supplied with either 90°, 100° or 120° “V” groove profiles.

• 0.8 to 1.6 mm wire dia = 90° “V” groove profile
