This detailed product description presents the heavy-duty, water-cooled C-Arm Tool Number No. 2 manufactured by Wieländer+Schill, specifically designed for InvertaSpot NexGen resistance spot welding machines, with a particular focus on welding tasks on wheel arches. This tool guarantees consistently perfect welding results and maximum stability even during the most demanding applications.
The C-Arm No. 2 is a specially designed, water-cooled arm ideal for spot welding operations in hard-to-reach areas, such as around wheel arches. The robust design and high-quality materials ensure long service life and reliable performance. The cooling function is critical during continuous, high-intensity welding cycles, preventing tool overheating and degradation of weld quality.
Main Advantages:
High Load Capacity: Specifically designed to withstand high loads, ensuring durability.
Consistent Weld Quality: Thanks to the cooling system, welding parameters remain stable.
Optimized Working Area: Features a geometry specifically adapted for wheel arch welding tasks.
Compatibility: Exclusively for the InvertaSpot NexGen usable with resistance spot welding machines.
The product is manufactured using high-quality materials, and the scope of delivery includes the necessary electrode types to start work.

The C-Arm No. 2 is delivered assembled and includes two basic electrodes that allow for the creation of various welding configurations:
Design: Spoon shape
Accessory: With electrode cap (Ø 16 mm)
To achieve perfect welding results and maintain the tools, the use of appropriate accessories is essential. The following products are closely related to the use of the C-Arm No. 2:
This electrode is part of the scope of delivery but can also be purchased as a spare part. Its mushroom shape may be ideal for certain welding points with specific geometry where a wider contact surface is advantageous.
The spoon-shaped electrode (part of the scope of delivery) provides special access in narrower or deeper areas, especially on the inner curves of wheel arches. The included 16 mm diameter electrode cap enables precise welding.
Regular maintenance of the spot welding electrodes is crucial for maintaining weld quality. This special cleaning tool (Grain 60) ensures that the electrode surface is always clean and correctly shaped. Only clean electrode caps guarantee correct spot welding results.
The C-Arm No. 2 is designed for modern automotive repair shops where welding high-strength steels and complex body parts is an everyday task. Work around wheel arches presents a particular challenge due to access and sheet metal thicknesses. This cooled C-arm provides a solution for effectively utilizing the welding machine's performance (especially the high performance of the InvertaSpot NexGen) without tool heating compromising the weld seam quality. The PU coating provides additional protection against damage to the body surfaces.
This tool is part of the Wieländer+Schill professional welding technology portfolio, which meets even the highest OEM (manufacturer) requirements.
