OVERVIEW

Reliable Feeding for Tough Jobs

Get back to welding with confidence using the Lincoln Electric KP52079-045C Knurled Drive Roll Kit. Designed for welders running .045" flux-cored wire, these rolls are built to handle the unique demands of tubular wire welding. If you've been struggling with wire slipping, stuttering, or flattening out inside the feeder, the culprit is often the wrong or worn-out drive rolls. This kit provides the aggressive grip needed to push flux-cored wire through the liner and gun cable without crushing it, ensuring your bead stays smooth and consistent.

Lincoln Electric knows that downtime is lost money. That's why this kit comes ready to install with everything you need in the package: two knurled drive rolls, set screws, and a hex key. Whether you are working on heavy structural steel, farm repairs, or general fabrication, having a fresh set of drive rolls ensures your machine operates at peak efficiency. The knurled teeth bite gently into the wire surface, providing positive traction without the need for excessive tension arm pressure.

Don't compromise your weld quality with generic parts. These genuine Lincoln Electric drive rolls are manufactured to precise tolerances to fit your machine perfectly. They are heat-treated for durability and long service life. Swap out your old, worn rolls today and experience the difference in feed consistency. Perfect for gasless flux-cored applications where steady wire delivery is key to good penetration and slag coverage.
