If you have ever tried to weld aluminum with standard drive rolls, you know the headache of bird-nesting. One moment you are laying a bead, and the next, your wire stops feeding, and you open the machine to find a tangled mess of aluminum spaghetti. The Lincoln KP1695-3/64A Drive Roll Kit is the cure for this frustration. Designed specifically for 3/64" (1.2 mm) aluminum wire, this kit upgrades your Lincoln welder to handle soft alloys with the care they require. The secret lies in the U-Groove design, which grips the wire gently but firmly, pushing it through the liner without flattening it or shaving off metal shavings that can clog your liner.
This kit is a complete solution for 2-roll feeder systems found on popular machines like the Lincoln LN-25 series and Power MIG welders. It doesn't just swap out the wheels; it includes a split wire guide that supports the wire right up to the drive rolls. This support is crucial because aluminum wire is like a wet noodle—you can't push it across a gap without it buckling. The included guide closes that gap, ensuring the wire goes exactly where it's supposed to: into your gun and onto your workpiece.
Don't let equipment limitations hold back your aluminum projects. By installing the KP1695-3/64A, you ensure smooth, consistent feeding, which translates directly to better arc starts and cleaner welds. Whether you are repairing a trailer, fabricating a boat, or working on custom automotive parts, this drive roll kit gives you the confidence that your machine will keep up with you. It is an affordable, easy-to-install upgrade that pays for itself by saving you from the wasted wire and lost time associated with feed failures.
