This detailed product description refers to the Wieländer+Schill part number 495065, Electrode Set No. 68, which is expressly designed for wheel arches. This set is indispensable for carrying out precise and effective resistance spot welding operations, especially in the automotive body repair sector.
Electrode Set No. 68 is a specially designed, non-water-cooled unit developed for the optimal execution of welding tasks on wheel arches. The set is exclusively for the InvertaSpot GT welding machine X-Trafogun gun, thereby ensuring system compatibility and guaranteed performance.
This electrode set is part of the professional welding technology range from Wieländer+Schill, which meets even the highest quality requirements. The use of CuCrZr (Copper-Chromium-Zirconium) material guarantees excellent electrical conductivity, high strength, and wear resistance, which is essential for creating durable and reliable weld seams.
The set is an ideal choice for repairing body parts where access is limited and electrodes with a special geometry are required for precise positioning and applying the correct pressure.
The table below summarizes the critical technical parameters of the Electrode Set No. 68, which ensure the optimal functioning of the tool within the specified parameters:
| Property | Value | Unit of Measure | Note |
|---|---|---|---|
| Part number | 495065 | – | Unique Identifier |
| Content | 1 set | – | Number of units in the package |
| Welding Force (Pressing Force) | 0,160 | kN | Minimum/optimal force required for welding |
| Material | CuCrZr | – | Copper-chromium-zirconium alloy |
| Operating pressure | 4 | bar | Optimal operating pressure of the pneumatic system |
| Shank diameter | 25 | mm | Dimension of the electrode fixing shank |
| Weight | 1,350 | kg | Net weight of the complete set |

| Compatibility | InvertaSpot GT (X-Trafogun) | – | Can be used exclusively with this configuration |
The CuCrZr material used has outstanding properties in spot welding applications:
High Hardness and Wear Resistance: Resists mechanical stress and softening caused by heat, ensuring a longer service life.
Excellent Electrical Conductivity: Ensures minimal resistance in current transmission, enabling the creation of stable and efficient weld spots.
Heat resistance: Maintains its mechanical properties even at high temperatures, which is critical during fast, repetitive welding cycles.
This electrode set integrates closely with the professional welding systems from Wieländer+Schill.
Mandatory Compatibility:
The set is exclusively for the InvertaSpot GT belonging to the welding machine X-Trafogun Operable with a welding gun. This specific fit guarantees that the operating pressure of 4 bar and the force of 0.160 kN are applied to the workpiece exactly as designed.
Main Application Area:
The set is primarily wheel arches optimized for welding and repair work on (wheel arches). Wheel arches are often surfaces with complex geometry where standard electrodes cannot fit or cannot provide adequate access to the welding points. The special design of set 68 makes precise work possible on these challenging surfaces.
To maximize the efficiency of electrode set 68, the manufacturer also offers the following compatible accessories:
This accessory enables welding in angles and positions inaccessible to the main electrodes. Ideal for narrow gaps and hard-to-reach curves.
This Isotube type electrode has specific dimensions:
Diameter: 14 mm
Length: 210 mm
This longer, thinner design offers additional flexibility for reaching deeper or specially contoured welding points.
These accessories ensure that set 68 can be fully utilized across the most diverse wheel arch repair scenarios.
The Wieländer+Schill electrode set 68, part number 495065, is a high-quality, professional tool that offers a long lifespan and reliable performance thanks to its CuCrZr material. Despite the lack of water cooling, the tool is optimal for application with the specified parameters (4 bar pressure, 0.160 kN force), provided it is used with the InvertaSpot GT X-Trafogun system. This set is essential for body repair shops seeking precise and durable welding solutions for wheel arch repairs.
