Welding Studs

Versatile design possibilities

  • Very little warping due to exceptionally short welding time
  • No drilling-related leaks
  • High strength due to full surface join
  • Access required from one side of the component only
  • Welding also possible on very thin components
  • Various materials can be combined

Unrivalled cost-effectiveness

  • Extremely automatable
  • Very short welding times (1 ms -1.5 sec.) make for high cycle sequences
  • Quick and easy use improves productivity
  • No need for secondary operations on the reverse side of coated or high-alloy panels
  • Low-cost standard bolts

Installation steps

1. Align the weld bolt or stud to its desired position

2. Draw a pilot arc and burn off any dirt or contaminants

3. Apply the main arc

4. Cool down the weld pool

5. The stud is welded in place, ready for painting

Benefits of arc welding

  • No drilling
  • No punching or stamping
  • No threading
  • No bolting

Examples and applications:

  • Vehicle construction (transportation systems)
  • Constructions
  • Metal manufactured products
  • Climate controls
  • Ship-building
  • Trades / household appliances
