OVERVIEW

Smooth Feeding for Superior Welds

Stop fighting with erratic wire feeding and upgrade your setup with the Lincoln Electric KP1696-035S Drive Roll Kit. If you are running .035" solid wire through your Lincoln Power MIG or LF-72 feeder, these are the rolls you need. Worn drive rolls can slip, causing inconsistent wire speeds that lead to burn-backs, sputtering arcs, and frustrating weld defects. This kit restores your machine's feeding capability to factory-fresh performance, ensuring your wire is delivered smoothly to the puddle every time.

The kit features V-groove drive rolls that are specifically designed for solid wire. The V-shape cradles the wire, providing positive traction without crushing it, which is a common issue when using the wrong type of roll. This preserves the wire's roundness and ensures it passes easily through the liner and contact tip. Additionally, the kit comes with a split wire guide that bridges the gap between the rolls and the gun receiver. This guide is a game-changer for preventing the wire from buckling and tangling inside the feeder, saving you from the headache of clearing bird nests in the middle of a job.

Installation is quick and straightforward, allowing you to get back to welding in minutes. Designed for 2-roll systems found on many popular Lincoln machines, this kit is a must-have for any welder looking to ensure reliability in their MIG process. Don't let poor feeding hold you back—equip your welder with genuine Lincoln drive rolls and experience the difference in arc stability and control.

FAQ

This kit is designed specifically for feeding .035 inch (0.9 mm) diameter wire.

No, these are V-Groove rolls designed for solid wire. For flux-cored wire, you should use knurled drive rolls to prevent crushing the wire.

This kit fits Lincoln Electric equipment with a 2-roll wire drive system, including the LF-72 feeder and many Power MIG series welders (e.g., Power MIG 140, 180, 210 MP, 216, 255).

The package includes two (2) V-groove drive rolls and one (1) inner wire guide.

The split wire guide supports the wire as it leaves the drive rolls, ensuring smooth entry into the gun liner and preventing the wire from buckling or bird-nesting.

If you experience wire slippage despite correct tension settings, or if the grooves appear worn or dirty, it is time to replace the drive rolls.

Yes, this is a genuine Lincoln Electric part, ensuring perfect fit and compatibility with your Lincoln equipment.

It is not recommended. Aluminum wire typically requires U-Groove drive rolls to prevent deformation of the soft metal.
