PRODUCT RANGE
Know what goes
into your welding gun.
Caps and shanks work together. Choose compatible components to suit your mounting connections, electrode face geometry and cooling requirements.
Electrode caps
The cap is the replaceable tip that contacts the sheet metal. Its face geometry, material and fit on the shank are key considerations when selecting and testing a cap.

BEHIND THE ELECTRODE CAP
Cold heading.
Performance assessed on your line.
Careful Welding describes cold heading as a core manufacturing process for its premium electrode caps. Metal is formed under pressure in a die, rather than shaped solely by machining.
Material & forming
The supplier uses alloy selection and cold forming to address deformation and wear. Confirm the material and manufacturing process for your chosen cap.
Internal cooling design
The supplier’s technical literature describes a stepped internal cavity designed to improve cooling. Discuss which design is suitable for your cooling system.
Precision tooling & component fit
Precision tooling is part of the supplier’s manufacturing process. Use your drawing to agree on critical dimensions, tolerances and inspection criteria.

YOUR PRODUCTION PRIORITIES
Start with the problem
you need to solve.
Wear & service life
Assess cap deformation, dressing frequency and replacement intervals together. Compare samples under the same welding and maintenance conditions.
Sticking & spatter
Discuss the workpiece coating, cap condition and welding parameters. Resistance to sticking and reduction in spatter should be assessed separately.
Aluminium spot welding
Provide the alloy grade, sheet thicknesses, sheet stack configuration and equipment details. Confirm a suitable cap design and material before carrying out an aluminium welding trial.
Fit & machining precision
Specify the cap-to-shank connection, shank mounting interface and dimensional tolerances. Include any leak-testing and inspection requirements in your enquiry.
MATERIAL OPTIONS TO DISCUSS
Begin with the application.
These two copper alloy families are covered in the technical reference. Confirm the appropriate grade and its availability for your application.
Chromium zirconium copper
Alumina dispersion-strengthened copper
