CD Metric Small Flanged Weld Studs

CD Metric Small Flanged Weld Studs are designed for applications requiring a compact welded fastening point with reduced flange dimensions. The smaller flange diameter allows components with smaller mounting holes to be installed while maintaining a secure welded connection.

The Capacitor Discharge (CD) stud welding process allows these metric weld studs to be attached to sheet metal with little to no reverse-side marking. These studs can also be installed using the ARC Short Cycle process for suitable sheet metal and plate applications.

  • Smaller Flange Diameter
  • Metric Thread Configurations
  • CD & ARC Short Cycle Equipment Compatible
  • Minimal Reverse-Side Marking

Product Overview

CD Metric Small Flanged Weld Studs provide a permanent threaded fastening solution where compact mounting dimensions are required. Their reduced flange diameter supports smaller mounting holes while maintaining dependable weld performance and reliable threaded attachment.

Designed for both Capacitor Discharge and ARC Short Cycle welding processes, these metric weld studs help manufacturers achieve clean, repeatable installations across a wide range of sheet metal fabrication applications.

CD Metric Small Flanged Weld Stud Features

CD Metric Small Flanged Weld Studs offer a compact fastening solution for tight spaces while maintaining strong welded attachment strength.

Compact Flange

The reduced flange diameter allows smaller mounting holes in components installed over the welded stud, making these studs suitable for space-restricted assemblies.

Metric Threads

These weld studs are available in metric thread sizes M3 to M10, supporting different fastening needs for sheet metal and fabricated components.

CD Welding

Designed for the Capacitor Discharge welding process, these studs provide controlled attachment with little to no reverse-side marking on sheet metal.

ARC Compatible

These metric small flanged weld studs can also be installed using the ARC Short Cycle process for suitable sheet metal and plate applications.

Size Range

Multiple stud diameters, flange diameters, and minimum lengths provide flexibility for various assembly designs and mounting requirements.

Collet Support

Compatible Standard B, Long, and EURO collets help maintain proper stud positioning during installation with CD welding equipment.

Optimize Compact Mounting Designs

Choose the correct CD weld stud configuration with guidance on dimensions, materials, and welding setup to support reliable fastening performance.
