Abstract

A twist roller guide having a minimized overall length, including a guide box, a twist guide member having a twisted through hole for giving preliminary twist to the stock passing therethrough, and a roller holder consisting of a hollow cylindrical body portion and a pair of bearing plates extending forwardly therefrom to support a pair of twist rollers therebetween. The twist guide member consists of an enlarged head portion defining an inlet opening therein and a tubular body portion, the head portion being fitted in a bracket portion of the guide box formed adjacent to the rear end thereof. The body portion of the twist guide is fitted in the hollow cylindrical body portion of the roller holder, which is firmly supported in another bracket portion of the guide box formed adjacent to the front end thereof. The twist guide is beveled at the top and bottom of its exit end face so that it may be placed quite close to the twist rollers.
