CD Metric Flanged Weld Studs

CD Metric Flanged Weld Studs are designed for permanent threaded attachment to sheet metal and plate using Capacitor Discharge (CD) or ARC Short Cycle stud welding. The integral flange provides a consistent weld base, while the CD process produces little to no reverse-side marking on thin materials. Complete Stud Welding offers technical assistance for selecting the appropriate metric weld stud and compatible welding accessories.

  • Metric Threads M3–M10
  • Integral Weld Flange
  • CD & ARC Short Cycle Compatible
  • Low Reverse-Side Marking

Product Overview

CD Metric Flanged Weld Studs provide permanent threaded fastening for metric assemblies while maintaining excellent cosmetic results on thin sheet metal. The integral flange creates a reliable weld base that supports consistent installation and dependable mechanical attachment.

Suitable for both Capacitor Discharge and ARC Short Cycle welding processes, these metric weld studs are available in multiple thread sizes and are supported by matching collets and welding accessories for efficient production.
