OVERVIEW

Smooth Feeding for Flux-Cored Welding

Achieving a consistent arc starts with reliable wire feeding, especially when working with flux-cored or metal-cored wires. The Lincoln Electric KP1505-045C Drive Roll Kit is designed to upgrade or restore your 4-roll wire feeder to optimal condition. Tailored for .040" to .045" (1.0-1.2 mm) cored wires, this kit is an essential accessory for welders demanding precision and reliability in their equipment. The knurled texture of the rolls ensures that the feeder grips the wire firmly, pushing it through the liner and gun without slipping, even when the cable is curved or long.

Why Choose Knurled Rolls?

Standard V-groove rolls are excellent for solid wire but can struggle with the softer, tubular nature of cored wires. If you tighten smooth rolls enough to grip cored wire, you risk crushing it, which changes its shape and causes drag in the contact tip. The KP1505-045C uses a knurled (toothed) design that provides superior traction with less crushing force. This results in smoother wire delivery, fewer burn-backs, and a more stable arc, allowing you to focus on the puddle rather than fighting the feeder.

Complete 4-Roll System

This kit isn't just a set of wheels; it's a complete traction system. It includes four drive rolls to fully utilize the torque of your 4-roll feeder, along with the specific guide tubes and feed plate required for this wire size. Using the correct guide tubes is often overlooked but is vital for preventing the wire from shaving or buckling before it enters the drive rolls. This kit fits popular Lincoln Electric models like the Power Feed and Flex Feed series, making it a versatile choice for professional shops.

Application Versatility

Whether you are welding structural steel, repairing heavy equipment, or working on a pipeline, consistent wire feed speed is non-negotiable. This kit supports a wide array of applications, from automotive repair to shipbuilding. By replacing worn rolls with the KP1505-045C, you ensure that your machine operates at the level of performance Lincoln Electric is known for, giving you the confidence to tackle critical welds with ease.

FAQ

This kit is designed for feeding cored wire with a diameter of .040 inches to .045 inches (1.0 mm to 1.2 mm).

It is not recommended. These rolls are knurled specifically for cored wire. Using them on solid wire may shave the copper coating and cause liner clogging. Use V-groove rolls for solid wire.

The KP1505-045C fits Lincoln Electric 4-roll feeders including the Power Feed®, Flex Feed®, and AutoDrive® series.

Yes, the kit includes the necessary guide tubes and a feed plate to ensure proper wire alignment for the specified wire size.

Knurled rolls have small teeth that grip the softer tubular cored wire without needing excessive pressure, preventing the wire from being crushed or deformed.

This is a 4-roll kit, containing four individual drive rolls to support 4-roll wire feeder systems.

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

No, aluminum wire typically requires U-groove drive rolls to prevent deformation and shaving. This knurled kit is for flux-cored or metal-cored steel wires.
