OVERVIEW

Smooth Feeding for Superior Welds

Every welder knows that a stable arc starts with smooth wire feeding. The Lincoln Electric KP653-035C Drive Roll Kit is designed to eliminate the frustration of slipping wire, erratic feeding, and bird-nests when running .035" cored wire through your LN-9 GMA feeder. Cored wires are softer and more prone to crushing than solid wires, which is why using the correct drive roll is absolutely essential. This kit features a drive roll specifically designed to grip the wire firmly without flattening it, ensuring that the flux or metal core remains undisturbed and the wire feeds consistently through the liner and contact tip.

This kit is more than just a replacement part; it is an upgrade to your machine's reliability. It comes complete with a matching guide tube, which is often overlooked but vital for guiding the wire accurately into the drive rolls and out to the gun. A worn guide tube can cause the wire to wander, leading to friction and feeding issues that ruin your rhythm and your welds. By replacing both the roll and the tube with this kit, you restore the wire feed path to its original factory condition. The installation process is straightforward, allowing you to get back to welding quickly with confidence in your equipment.

Lincoln Electric is a name synonymous with quality in the welding industry, and this OEM kit lives up to that reputation. The components are built to withstand the heat and grime of the shop environment, providing durable performance you can count on. Whether you are working on automotive repairs, light fabrication, or general maintenance, having the right drive rolls for your wire size and type makes all the difference. Don't let poor wire feeding compromise your work; equip your LN-9 feeder with the KP653-035C kit and experience the difference that precision engineering makes in your daily welding operations.

FAQ

This drive roll kit is designed specifically for the Lincoln Electric LN-9 GMA wire feeder.

It is designed for 0.035-inch (0.9 mm) cored steel wire (flux-cored or metal-cored).

Yes, the KP653-035C kit includes both the drive roll and the corresponding guide tube.

No, this kit is optimized for cored wire. Solid wire typically requires smooth V-groove rolls, whereas cored wire often requires knurled or specific V-groove rolls to prevent crushing while ensuring grip.

Changing the guide tube ensures proper alignment of the wire into the rolls and gun. A worn guide tube can cause misalignment, friction, and feeding issues.

Signs of wear include slipping wire despite correct tension, visible wear on the groove, or erratic wire feeding. If cleaning doesn't resolve the issue, replacement is recommended.

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