Weld Mount Studs are stainless steel fasteners with large “heads” designed to be welded directly onto surfaces, often used to mount panels and deck mounts.
Weld mounts offer an alternative to screws, bolts and adhesives in that they create a permanent and strong bond with full cross sectional welds for optimal strength. Installed quickly using arc stud welding technology.
Threaded Studs
Threaded studs are industrial fasteners that feature threads on one end for secure connections to nuts or other threaded components, such as bolts. There are different lengths and styles available so it is essential that you evaluate which will best meet the requirements of your project. When choosing between length options it is also essential that the maximum load factor that applies (this could include axial loads, longitudinal loads, shear forces torque or compressive forces). Furthermore, your size options will depend upon its diameter of its body thread pitch length head or hex head style – both factors must also influence this decision.
Threaded Studs
There are various materials and sizes of threaded studs on the market designed for use in commercial construction, agriculture, manufacturing, plumbing and electrical applications. Steel is strong and corrosion resistant while aluminum provides lightweight durability with flexibility. Other options such as brass provide soft malleable strength but corrosion resistance while titanium boasts great strength against rust-inhibition.
Fasteners typically made of 316 or 304 stainless steel have excellent corrosion and heat resistance and can tolerate temperatures as high as 300F (149C). They come with various thread sizes and pitches from coarse to fine depending on your level of precision, and come with either plain or zinc clear coating to protect from rust and corrosion.
Weld Mount Stainless Studs A weld mount stud is a threaded stud that requires use of a special welding gun in order to install. This gun directs current through its base to melt it along with parts of its substrate to form a weld that permanently adheres both pieces together. These fasteners make excellent options when drilling holes or other forms of permanent connections aren’t possible or preferable. Weld studs offer an ideal alternative when attaching components where such permanent solutions cannot be made easily.
Fully Threaded Studs
Threaded studs are an ideal choice for applications that demand secure connections with increased load bearing capabilities, making installation simple. Their threaded design makes installation quick and they accommodate various fastener options such as nuts for fastening. Available in various lengths, fully threaded studs are often combined with hex nuts to strengthen holding power further.
Metric Partially Threaded Studs Metric partially threaded studs are ideal for projects requiring secure fastening with alignment through unthreaded sections, like mechanical assemblies or construction work that adheres to DIN, ISO or UN standards. They’re frequently seen being used as fasteners on structural components as well as machinery assemblies.
Press-Fit Studs
Press-fit studs are fasteners that are installed by pushing them into an empty hole in place of conventional fasteners, often used in automotive and aircraft applications as well as plastic part assembly and other uses. Press-fit studs not only reduce installation time and risk of surface and component damage but can also speed up assembly times by eliminating traditional fasteners altogether. When choosing press-fit studs for your project it is essential that loads and pressure will be applied and that its size matches any mating fasteners that will be present – press-fit studs don’t work in all circumstances! To select an ideal press-fit stud you should understand loads and pressure applied as well as matching fasteners matched perfectly.
