OVERVIEW

Reliable Feeding for Aluminum MIG Welding

Frustrated by birdnesting and erratic wire feeding when welding aluminum? The Lincoln Electric KP654-035A Drive Roll Kit is the solution you need to get your LN-7 or LN-9 wire feeder running smoothly. Aluminum wire is notoriously difficult to feed due to its softness and lack of column strength. Using standard drive rolls designed for steel can crush the wire or cause it to slip, leading to burn-backs and wasted time clearing jams. This genuine Lincoln Electric kit is specifically tailored to handle 0.035-inch aluminum wire with the care and precision it demands.

This all-in-one kit includes both the drive roll and the necessary guide tube, making it a complete upgrade package for your feeder. The drive roll features a groove profile optimized for aluminum, providing positive traction without deforming the wire cross-section. This ensures that the wire moves smoothly through the liner and contact tip, reducing friction and wear on your consumables. The included guide tube is just as vital; it supports the wire right up to the drive rolls, preventing it from wandering or kinking when it encounters resistance in the torch cable.

Whether you are working on automotive repairs, boat fabrication, or general aluminum manufacturing, reliable equipment is key to profitability. Don't let feed issues slow down your production. By installing the KP654-035A kit, you restore the performance of your Lincoln wire feeder, ensuring consistent wire speeds and high-quality welds. It is a small investment that pays off in reduced downtime and frustration. Keep your shop running efficiently with genuine Lincoln Electric parts designed for the job at hand.

Key Benefits:

  • Prevents wire crushing and deformation.
  • Reduces risk of birdnesting at the feeder.
  • Ensures consistent wire feed speed for stable arcs.
  • Direct fit for LN-7 and LN-9 series feeders.

FAQ

This kit is designed specifically for 0.035-inch (0.9 mm) wire.

No, this kit is optimized for aluminum wire. Steel wire typically requires V-groove or knurled rolls, whereas aluminum requires a specific groove profile to prevent deformation.

It is compatible with Lincoln Electric LN-7 and LN-7/LN-9 GMA wire feeders.

Yes, the kit includes both the drive roll and the corresponding guide tube necessary for feeding aluminum wire.

Aluminum wire is soft and prone to buckling (birdnesting) and crushing. This kit uses a U-groove style roll and a precise guide tube to support the soft wire and feed it without damage.

Yes, this is a genuine Lincoln Electric KP654-035A Drive Roll Kit.

The manufacturer specifies this as a "Package of 1", which typically refers to one kit containing the necessary roll(s) and guide tube for a single drive assembly on the compatible feeder.

While birdnesting can be caused by many factors (liner, tip, gun angle), using the correct drive roll and guide tube kit is the most important first step in preventing it when welding aluminum.
