OVERVIEW

Genuine Lincoln Electric KP653-025S Drive Roll Kit

Achieve superior wire feeding performance with the Lincoln Electric KP653-025S Drive Roll Kit, specifically manufactured for .023-.025 inch (0.6 mm) solid wire. This kit is a critical accessory for welders who demand precision and reliability from their wire feeding systems. When welding with fine solid wires, the tolerance for error in the drive system is minimal. This OEM kit is machined to exact specifications to ensure positive traction on the wire, eliminating common feeding issues such as slipping, stuttering, or erratic arc characteristics.

The KP653-025S is a comprehensive solution that includes both the drive roll and the essential guide tube. The guide tube plays a pivotal role in directing the wire into the drive rolls and into the gun liner, preventing the wire from buckling under the pressure of the drive system. This is especially vital for the 2-roll designs found in the compatible feeder models. By replacing the guide tube along with the drive roll, you ensure a completely refreshed wire path that restores your feeder to factory-level performance.

Technical Specifications and Compatibility

This drive roll kit is designed for use with a specific range of Lincoln Electric wire feeders, making it a versatile addition to your parts inventory. It is compatible with:

  • LN-25: The industry standard for portable wire feeding.
  • LN-7 GMA & LN-9: Trusted workshop feeders for high-production environments.
  • LN-23P & LN-35: Specialized feeders for specific applications.

Using the correct drive roll for your wire size is non-negotiable for quality welding. Attempting to feed .023" wire through larger rolls results in poor traction, while using knurled rolls designed for flux-cored wire can shave metal off solid wire, clogging your liner. The smooth groove design of the KP653-025S is optimized strictly for solid wire, preserving the wire's surface integrity and ensuring a clean weld. Trust in Lincoln Electric's engineering to keep your production line moving and your welds defect-free.

FAQ

This kit is designed specifically for .023 to .025 inch (0.6 mm) solid steel wire.

Yes, the KP653-025S kit includes both the drive roll and the corresponding guide tube.

It is compatible with LN-9, LN-9/LN-7 GMA, LN-23P, LN-25, and LN-35 wire feeders.

No, this drive roll is designed for solid wire. Flux-cored wire typically requires knurled drive rolls to prevent crushing.

Yes, this is a genuine OEM Lincoln Electric product, ensuring perfect fit and durability.

The guide tube wears over time just like the rolls. Changing it ensures proper alignment and prevents wire shaving or birdnesting.

The 2-roll design provides a balance of traction and simplicity, suitable for many standard industrial feeding applications.
