Stud welding is a fast, reliable and accurate method of welding a metal fastener to another metal object. The resultant weld joint is stronger than the stud or parent material. Improved product design is achieved since reverse marking is eliminated and the area around the studs is flat and clean. In order to weld the stud, access is only required from one side which means that component handling is reduced. Welds are also leak proof and tamper proof, and since no holes are punched in the sheet, corrosion problems are reduced and the work piece is not weakened. Drilling And Tapping These processes are very slow. Thicker base material and longer studs are required. Holes need to be punched and de-burred in base material. Through Bolting Requires two handed assembly and access from both sides. Holes need to be punches and de-burred in base material. Bolt heads are unsightly and stains can come from the bolt holes. The assembly is not leak proof and the parent material is weakened by the presence of holes. Stud welding has become the standard in many fastening applications in industrial and commercial buildings, bridges, power generating structures, military vehicles, automobiles, trucks and off-road equipment. Stud welding literally anchors other components to the basic framework of structures without piercing the basic framework and provides superior strength to traditional welding methods. Moreover, stud welding is much faster than hand welding and does away with all the problems inherent with holes in structural members. No Distortion/Blemishes other side needs no treatment Total Flexibility weld studs anywhere, at any time Design Freedom improved appearance, no exposed fasteners Lowest In-place Cost the natural result of all the above! Less heat input less cracking, distortion, warping of base Material Cost comparison 43% lower cost than stick & mig welding Operator friendly gloves, safety glasses are required, fumes are minimized Stud welding tool use of semi-skilled labour, weld process is automatically. At ease with traditional welding techniques (stick or mig welding) Suppliers have inadequate knowledge on stud welding techniques & applications.
