What is BS EN 25184 - Straight resistance spot welding electrodes about?
BS EN 25184 is an International Standard that lays down the dimensions and tolerances of straight resistance spot welding electrodes. The main objective of the BS EN 25184 is to provide best industry guidance on resistance-welding equipment to ensure they are fit for its intended application use.
BS EN 25184 applies only to straight spot welding electrodes, where the electrode force Fmax given for diameter d1 in the table is not exceeded and where the center lines of the electrodes are perpendicular to the workpiece.
Who is BS EN 25184 - Straight resistance spot welding electrodes for?
BS EN 25184 on straight resistance spot welding electrodes is useful for:
Straight resistance spot welding electrode manufacturers
Welding equipment manufacturers
Construction, automotive, mechanical industry
Sheet metal manufacturers
Manufacturers of pressure vessels
Aerospace industry
Why should you use BS EN 25184 - Straight resistance spot welding electrodes?
The resistance spot welding process is used primarily for welding two or more metal sheets together by applying pressure and heat from an electric current to the weld area. In this context, straight electrodes are a workhorse of resistance spot welding. These standard parts were the traditional way of joining metal together before the advent of replaceable caps and shanks.
BS EN 25184 provides you with the dimension and tolerances requirements of straight resistance spot welding electrodes as well as designation and materials, marking requirements of straight resistance spot welding electrodes.
If you are a manufacturer of resistance-welding equipment, compliance with BS EN 24184 can ensure your straight resistance spot welding electrodes play a positive role in the overall spot welding process by conveying adequate electrical current through the weld pieces.
