W4017214 - 1/8 Inch V-Knurled Drive Roll Kit (Pair)

Heavy-Duty Wire Feeding Solution

The Lincoln Electric W4017214 Feed Roll Set is a critical component for industrial welding operations utilizing large diameter cored wires. Designed with precision, this set includes two drive rolls optimized for 1/8-inch (3.2mm) welding wire. The rolls feature a V-Knurled (VK) groove geometry, which is the industry standard for feeding tubular wires such as Flux-Cored (FCAW) and Metal-Cored (GMAW-C) consumables.

In heavy fabrication environments, consistent wire feeding is paramount to weld quality. Smooth groove rolls often require excessive tension to grip cored wires, leading to deformation and poor arc starts. These V-Knurled rolls solve this issue by using small teeth within the groove to bite into the wire's surface, providing positive traction with minimal drive roll pressure. This design extends the life of the wire feeder motor and ensures a stable, consistent arc even over long conduit runs.

Manufactured from high-grade hardened steel, these rolls are built to withstand the abrasive nature of knurled feeding and the rigors of continuous industrial use. This kit is an essential maintenance item for keeping your wire feeding equipment operating at peak efficiency.
