This detailed product description refers to the high-performance resistance spot welding electrode offered by Wielander + Schill, which is specifically optimized for C-Arm welding heads. This component is essential for precise and reliable body repair work, ensuring welds of excellent quality.
This product is a straight electrode, which is designed to perfectly fit the C-Arm Type 4 holder. The 170 mm length ensures optimal access and working distance during the welding of various body panels.
The package includes the necessary accessories for immediate and efficient use:
Electrode Cap: Forms the welding surface that contacts the workpiece.
Copper Sealing Disc: This element is crucial for optimizing proper electrical contact and heat conduction at the connection point between the electrode shank and the holder.
The use of premium quality materials guarantees the long lifespan of the electrode and consistent welding performance, even under intensive industrial use. Precise manufacturing ensures that the diameter of the electrode shank fits exactly into the receiving mechanism, minimizing backlash and wear.

The electrode CuCrZr made of alloy. This material is an excellent choice for spot welding applications because it combines the excellent electrical and thermal conductivity of copper with the increased hardness and resistance to softening at high temperatures provided by chromium and zirconium. This ensures that the electrode maintains the shape and hardness of the welding face for a longer period, thereby reducing the need for frequent replacement and improving the quality of the weld seams.
This electrode is part of the Wielander + Schill professional welding technology portfolio, primarily designed for use in the automotive repair industry (bodyshop).
Main Advantages:
Optimized Access: The 170 mm length enables welding of hard-to-reach spots, especially on the complex body components of modern vehicles.
Excellent Current Transfer: The copper-based material and the included copper sealing washer minimize the transitional resistance, ensuring more uniform and efficient welding energy.
Long Lifespan: The CuCrZr material resists high thermal stress and mechanical strain, resulting in less frequent replacement and lower operating costs.
Professional Compatibility: Specifically designed for the C-Arm No. 4 system, guaranteeing a precise fit and secure mounting.
To maintain maximum welding efficiency and electrode lifespan, Wielander + Schill offers a range of accessories for electrode maintenance and optimization. These accessories are ideal for all 16 mm diameter electrodes:
Depending on the nature of the welding task, electrode caps with various geometries can be used. These caps are replaceable, and in addition to the electrode cap included in the package (which is part of the main product), other types are also available:
Type E (Part No.: 497081): 20 mm length, 16 mm diameter. (Package content: 4 pcs/pack)
Type A-40 (Part number: 497097): 20 mm length, 16 mm diameter. (Package content: 6 pcs/pack)
Type D (Part No.: 497085): 16 mm in diameter. (Packaging: 4 pcs/pack)
Type F (Part No.: 497075): Round shaped, 20 mm length, 16 mm diameter. (Package content: 4 pcs/pack)
Type P (Part number: 497076): Eccentric shaped, 20 mm length, 16 mm diameter. (Package content: 4 pcs/pack)
Type A-32 (Part number: 497096): 20 mm length, 16 mm diameter. Specifically for welding with an automatic program, exclusively for use with the C-Trafogun GT-V6 device. (Package content: 6 pcs/pack)
Type B (Part No.: 497079): Cup-flat shaped, 20 mm length, 16 mm diameter. (Package content: 4 pcs/pack)
To maintain welding quality, regular cleaning and lubrication of the electrode tips are essential:
Electrode Caps Remover (Electrode Caps Remover – Part No.: 498003): Special tool for the safe removal of stuck or tightly fitted electrode caps.
Copper Paste for Electrodes (Copper Paste for Electrodes – 75 g – Part No.: 497010): This paste measurably reduces transitional resistances at the connection points of the electrode arms, significantly improving conductivity.
Electrode Fix (Electrode Fix – Grit: 60 – Part No.: 298298): An abrasive material used for cleaning spot welding electrode caps. Only clean electrode tips guarantee correct welding results.
This 170 mm straight electrode is an ideal choice for the C-Arm 4 system for any technician seeking the highest level of spot welding quality and reliability during auto body repair work.
