This detailed product description is for the VAS 6545B/5 C-Arm No. 5 presents an accessory, which was VAS 6545B resistance spot welding machine developed. This special C-arm is ideally suited for high-demand, professional body repair tasks where consistent perfect welding results and maximum stability are essential.
Recommended as workshop equipment by Volkswagen AG, this accessory is ideal for the most demanding applications, ensuring efficient and reliable work performance.
The VAS 6545B/5 C-Arm No. 5 is a liquid-cooled device that significantly increases the flexibility and performance of the VAS 6545B welding machine. The cooling function is crucial during long, intensive use, as it prevents overheating of the welding guns, thereby guaranteeing the maintenance of optimal welding parameters.
Key advantages:
High Load Capacity: Specifically designed for high mechanical stress, ensuring long service life and reliability.
Consistent Weld Quality: The stable construction and effective cooling guarantee that every weld point achieves the same quality according to factory specifications.
Ideal for Complex Tasks: Excellent for accessing hard-to-reach or high-energy welding points where standard arms would be limited.
Wide Working Area: The 205 x 550 mm working frame also allows access to points with larger overlaps or greater distances.
The precise design of the product and the quality of the materials used ensure professional performance. The table below summarizes the most important technical details:

The VAS 6545B/5 C-Arm No. 5 is fully ready for deployment into the work process. The package includes the C-arm as well as the basic welding electrode, which is sufficient for most standard spot welding tasks.
The scope of delivery includes:
Assembled C-Arm No. 5: The cooled arm unit.
Electrode (Part No.: 495667): A 135 mm long electrode equipped with a Ø 16 mm diameter electrode cap. This configuration is ideal for ensuring precise contact on the specific working area of the arm.
This C-arm accessory is specifically optimized for the repair of modern vehicle bodies, where welding high-strength steels and complex structural elements is common.
Advantages of the Cooled C-Arm:
Longer Electrode Lifespan: Continuous cooling minimizes the wear and deformation of the electrode tip, thereby reducing the need for frequent replacements and downtime.
Temperature Stability: Dissipating the heat generated during the welding process ensures that the welding gun and the structure of the arm do not lose their mechanical integrity, which is critical for precision work.
Optimized Access: The design of the arm allows access to welding points even in areas where the main unit of the welding machine cannot reach directly, for example, in tight interior corners or on reinforced pillars.
The VAS 6545B/5 C-Arm No. 5 has been released as an official accessory for the VAS 6545B resistance spot welding machine and closely aligns with the workshop equipment standards specified by Volkswagen AG.
Important note regarding procurement: This product is exclusively available through official Wieländer+Schill distributors or the local Volkswagen importer, thus ensuring its originality and service support.
The VAS 6545B system is highly modular, and C-arms with different geometries are required for various body parts. In addition to the No. 5 arm, the system also offers other special accessories:
VAS 6545B/2 C-Arm No. 2 (For Wheel Arches): Design specifically developed for welding wheel arches.
VAS 6545B/3 C-Arm No. 3 (150 × 450 mm): Offers a medium-sized working area with a C-shaped electrode.
VAS 6545B/4 C-Arm No. 4 (350 × 450 mm): Features a larger working frame of 350 x 450 mm, with a mushroom-shaped electrode cap.
These accessories enable workshops to adapt the VAS 6545B welding unit to the most diverse repair manuals, maximizing the return on investment and repair efficiency.
