Product ID: 495667
This detailed product description presents a high-quality straight electrode from Wielander + Schill's professional welding technology range, specifically designed for resistance spot welding applications. This component is essential for precise and reliable auto body repair work, especially when used with C-arm holder systems.
The product with item number 495667 is a straight electrode, which has a length of 135 mm, and includes the corresponding electrode head (electrode cap) as an accessory. This configuration ensures that the user can immediately install and utilize the component.
Specifically designed for the C-arm holder no. 5 (C-Arm no. 5) The perfect fit and efficient power transmission during the welding process are guaranteed thanks to its design optimized for the copper-chromium-zirconium (CuCrZr) alloy, known for its excellent electrical conductivity and mechanical strength, which withstands high temperatures and continuous load, thus maximizing service life.
In terms of welding quality, it is critically important that the electrode surface is always clean and correctly shaped. This electrode is the ideal choice for spot welding body panels where a standard, straight contact surface is required.

The use of the CuCrZr alloy is not accidental. During spot welding, the electrodes are exposed to extremely high current loads and mechanical pressure. Copper ensures low resistance and excellent thermal conductivity, while the added chromium and zirconium increase the material's hardness and resistance to softening (against so-called „mushrooming”), which is essential for maintaining long service life and consistent weld quality.
Using the appropriate electrode caps (tips) and their regular maintenance is essential for achieving perfect welding results. Several accessory tips are available for the 16 mm diameter electrode, enabling different welding geometries and applications.
