Resistance spot welding - Male electrode caps (ISO 5830:1984)
Specifies the dimensions and tolerances for male electrode caps for resistance spot welding when a female taper (see ISO 1089) is used to fix the electrode adaptor (see ISO 5829). Applies only to electrode caps for which the electrode force Fmax, given for the diameter d1, does not exceed 4,0 kN. Covers also designation, material and marking.
Widerstandspunktschweißen - Elektrodeneinsteckkappen (ISO 5830:1984)
Diese Internationale Norm legt die Maße und Toleranzen für Elektrodeneinsteckkappen für das Wider-standspunktschweißen fest, bei denen ein Innenkonus (siehe ISO 1089) zur Befestigung des Elektroden-adapters (siehe ISO 5829) verwendet wird.
Sie gilt nur für Elektrodenkappen, bei denen die Elektrodenkraft Fmax, angegeben für den Durchmesser d1, 4,0 kN nicht übersteigt.

General Information
Overview
EN ISO 5830:2021 - Resistance spot welding: Male electrode caps specifies the dimensions, tolerances, designation, material and marking for male electrode caps used in resistance spot welding when a female taper (ISO 1089) secures the electrode adaptor (ISO 5829). The standard applies only to electrode caps where the maximum electrode force Fmax (for the specified external diameter d1) does not exceed 4.0 kN. EN ISO 5830:2021 is the CEN adoption of ISO 5830:1984 and is intended for use across welding equipment manufacturing and quality processes.
Key Topics and Requirements
- Scope and applicability: Defines use with a female taper (ISO 1089) and electrode adaptors (ISO 5829); limited to caps with Fmax ≤ 4.0 kN for the given d1.
- Dimensions and tolerances: Provides drawings, a dimensional table and gauge references for critical features (external diameter d1, length l1 and other interface dimensions). These dimensions are normative and used for interchangeability.
- Designation: Specifies a standardized naming format for caps (example: “ISO 5830 - L 16 x 25” for type L, d1 = 16 mm, l1 = 25 mm).
- Material requirements: Caps shall conform to code A 2/2 of ISO 5182 (materials for resistance welding electrodes and ancillary equipment).
- Marking and packing: Packing must be marked with the cap designation (standard reference, d1 and l1) as specified in the standard; marking rules exclude the identity block on the drawing.
- Types: Defines types (L, M, N) and notes that for M and N the non-specified dimensions match type L as given in the standard.
Practical Applications
- Ensures interchangeability of male electrode caps across resistance spot welding systems that use tapered adaptors.
- Used by:
- Welding equipment manufacturers designing electrode holders and adaptors.
- Electrode cap suppliers for product specification, production and quality control.
- Design and manufacturing engineers specifying welding consumables for assembly lines (automotive, appliance manufacture).
- Procurement and quality assurance teams to verify conformity and marking on deliveries.
- Helps maintain consistent electrode contact geometry to achieve predictable weld quality and machine compatibility.
Related Standards
- ISO 1089 - Electrode taper fits for spot welding equipment (female taper dimensions)
- ISO 5829 - Resistance spot welding electrode adaptors (female taper)
- ISO 5182 - Materials for resistance welding electrodes and ancillary equipment (material codes)
- ISO 1302 - Technical drawings - surface texture indication (referenced for drawing details)
EN ISO 5830:2021 is essential for anyone specifying or producing male electrode caps in resistance spot welding systems, ensuring compatibility, safety and consistent welding performance.
