CD Annular Ring Navy Studs provide a specialized fastening method for insulation applications by combining a welded stud attachment with a locking cap retention system.
CAR weld studs are designed specifically for installing insulation materials by providing a welded point where insulation can be positioned and secured.
The annular ring design provides a locking surface for the Mushroom Navy Cap after installation, helping retain insulation materials on the welded stud.
After insulation is placed over the stud, the aluminum Mushroom Navy Cap is installed with a hammer and locks onto the stud.
Available in mild steel and stainless steel, CAR weld studs accommodate various insulation installation requirements.
Standard 1-3/8" long B collets (P/N CDB-018) and short 1-3/16" long B collets (P/N CDB-018A) are fully compatible but require a B Stop.
The tooling guide features an extended 2-3/8" long collet configuration option, which notes that it requires Long Style Stops for proper tool assembly.
