283918 - Miller Wire Drive Housing Assembly, Dual Right Hand with Levers

Genuine Miller Wire Drive Housing for Dual Right-Hand Systems

The Miller 283918 Housing, Wire Drive W/Front & Rear Lever - Dual Rh is a critical replacement component designed for specific Miller industrial wire feeders. In high-volume welding environments, the wire drive assembly is the heart of the feeding system, responsible for delivering electrode wire smoothly from the spool to the gun. Over time, mechanical stress and wear can affect the housing's ability to maintain proper alignment and tension. This genuine OEM part ensures that your equipment continues to operate at peak performance levels.

This specific housing is engineered for "Dual Right Hand" configurations, typically found on dual-head wire feeders where two different wires can be run from a single power source. The assembly comes pre-equipped with both front and rear tension levers. These levers are essential for applying the correct amount of pressure to the drive rolls, preventing wire slippage without crushing the wire. Proper tension is vital for consistent arc starting and stability, particularly when using softer wires like aluminum or flux-cored wires that are sensitive to feeding pressure.

Constructed to Miller's exacting standards, this housing provides a precise fit for your machine's internal components. Using genuine Miller parts like the 283918 helps avoid the downtime associated with fitting generic components that may not align perfectly with the motor or guide tubes. Whether you are repairing a damaged unit or performing a complete overhaul of your wire feeder's drive mechanism, this housing assembly offers the reliability and durability expected from Miller Electric products.
