Weldstuds

Solutions for Permanent Fastening

Weld studs offer a robust method for creating permanent threaded connections on metal surfaces. By fusing the stud directly to the base material, they eliminate the need for drilling or tapping, ensuring high-strength, tamper-resistant assemblies in demanding environments.

Key Features

  • Types:
    • Capacitor Discharge (CD) Stud: For thin materials, using rapid discharge welding to minimize heat distortion.
    • Arc Weld (DC) Stud: Suitable for thicker materials, offering deep penetration and high shear strength.
  • Sizes: Available in metric and imperial threads, typically ranging from M3 to M16 and beyond, with custom lengths for specific applications.
  • Materials & Finishes: Mild steel, stainless steel, aluminium, and brass options with finishes such as zinc plating, passivation, or black oxide for corrosion resistance.
  • Enhanced Features:
    • High tensile and shear strength
    • Flush or protruding head styles
    • Quick installation with automated or manual stud welding equipment
    • Minimal distortion of base material
  • Packaging: Supplied in bulk quantities or kits, often with matching ferrules or ceramic rings for arc welding.
