Part number: 497105
This product is part of the professional welding technology range from Wieländer+Schill, specifically developed for resistance spot welding applications. The high-quality D38° type electrode cap tips ensure precise and reliable welding results, especially during body repair work.
The D38° type electrode cap tips are essential accessories for precision welding tasks. These wear parts are crucial for maintaining the quality of the weld spots, as they are in direct contact with the workpiece during the welding process. The use of electrode cap tips with the correct geometry and material guarantees optimal current transfer and consistent welding pressure.
These caps are specifically for electrode set no. 9 and no. 12 (electrode set no. 9 and no. 12), ensuring compatibility with existing tools.
Main Advantages:
Precise Geometry: The D38° shape provides an optimal contact surface with the workpiece, minimizing sparking and maximizing welding efficiency.
Excellent Material Quality: Made from Zirconium copper, which ensures excellent electrical conductivity and high heat resistance, significantly increasing the service life.
Long Lifespan: The special material composition resists high thermal load and mechanical stress, reducing the need for frequent changes.
Packaging quantity: Available in a practical pack of 6 pieces, ensuring a spare part is always at hand.

These electrode cap tips are essential for any professional workshop performing resistance spot welding, especially in the field of automotive body repair. The quality of the weld is directly dependent on the condition of the electrode tip. Worn, damaged, or contaminated electrodes reduce the efficiency of the welding current, which can lead to weak, insufficiently strong weld spots.
The importance of clean electrode tips:
A clean electrode surface ensures minimal resistance in current transfer. Contaminants (e.g., paint residues, oxidation) can form an insulating layer, leading to localized overheating, faster electrode wear, and weakening of the weld spot. Therefore, regular maintenance and immediate replacement of worn caps are essential.
To maximize welding performance and extend the lifespan of the electrodes, we recommend using the following accessory product:
Electrode grinder (Electrode fix | Grain 60)
Part number: 298298
Function: Serves for cleaning spot welding electrode tips when they become contaminated.
Advantage: Only clean electrode tips guarantee correct spot welding results. The 60-grit abrasive is ideal for effectively removing surface contaminants without excessively removing material from the electrode tip.
This combination – high-quality Zirconium copper D38° caps and regular grinding – ensures the long-term, reliable operation of Wieländer+Schill welding technology systems.
