Arc Stud Welders
Arc stud welding is an innovative way of attaching various sizes and applications of metal fasteners securely to base materials such as mild steel and stainless steel, in a short process that results in a stronger bond than either material can offer on its own.
Why Stud Welders Are Popular
Stud welding is an extremely fast process that occurs within milliseconds. Additionally, it's highly accurate and can be adjusted to meet precise requirements.
Capacitive discharge welding (CD) is one of the most popular stud welding methods. This easy-to-learn technique works well on material sizes between smaller stud diameters that may benefit from drawn arc welding and larger ones that cannot.
Arc stud welding by arc stud welders can be accomplished with either 100% pure argon, or with an Ar/He mixture that contains more arc ionization energy and has higher thermal conductivity to more rapidly melt aluminum studs.
Arc stud welding by arc stud welders provides fast, high-quality welds in milliseconds using appropriate rods - plus it helps create consistent bead profiles!This technique offers strong one-sided welds on base materials up to 1/4" diameter. A ceramic ferrule protects from the arc while simultaneously concentrating heat during welding cycles for optimal adhesion between fastener and parent metal.
