OVERVIEW

Smooth Feeding for Better Welds

Nothing ruins a good weld bead faster than a stuttering wire feeder. If you are running .045" solid wire and noticing inconsistent feeding or birdnesting, it might be time to replace your drive rolls. The Lincoln Electric W4017013 Feed Roll Set is designed to get your machine back to peak performance. These rolls feature a smooth V-Groove that cradles solid mild steel or stainless wire, giving you the traction you need without chewing up the wire surface.

Built for the Grind

Welding is a tough job, and your equipment needs to keep up. These rolls are made from hardened steel to resist wear and tear, meaning you won't have to swap them out constantly. This set includes two rolls, allowing you to refresh your feeder's grip completely. Whether you are fabricating structural steel or working on heavy repairs, reliable wire feeding allows you to focus on your puddle control rather than fighting your machine.

Why V-Groove?

Using the right roll for the right wire is rule number one in MIG welding. These V-Groove rolls are strictly for solid wire. Unlike knurled rolls that dig into flux-cored wire, these smooth grooves rely on friction and fit. This prevents metal shavings from clogging your liner and ensures the wire stays round for good electrical contact at the tip.

FAQ

This set is designed for .045" (1.2 mm) solid welding wire, such as mild steel or stainless steel.

No, V-Groove rolls are not recommended for flux-cored wire. You should use knurled V-Groove rolls for flux-cored wire to prevent crushing the hollow wire.

The package contains a set of 2 drive rolls.

V-Groove is designed for hard, solid wires (steel/stainless) to provide grip. U-Groove is typically used for soft wires like aluminum to prevent deformation.

Drive rolls should be replaced when the grooves become worn or rounded, causing the wire to slip even when tension is correctly adjusted.

Yes, this is a Lincoln Electric product, ensuring perfect fit and compatibility with specified Lincoln wire feeders.

No, drive rolls are machine-specific. You must check your wire feeder's manual or parts list to ensure W4017013 is the correct part number.
