Complete Stud Welding

Threaded Collar Weld Studs

Threaded Collar Weld Studs (TC) are ARC weld fasteners featuring an integral collar located between the threaded section and weld base. The collar serves as a positive stop, creating a defined seating surface for consistent component positioning and assembly alignment.

Commonly used in industrial equipment, fabricated assemblies, machinery, and enclosure applications, these threaded collar weld studs combine a welded attachment point, threaded fastening interface, and positioning feature within a single component. This design supports both secure fastening and repeatable installation dimensions.

  • Manufactured to Customer-Specified Collar Dimensions
  • Available with UNC-2A, UNF-2A or Metric Threads
  • Carbon Steel & Stainless Steel Construction
  • ARC Weld Installation with Matching Ferrules

Threaded Collar Weld Stud Features

Threaded Collar Weld Studs are designed for applications where assembly positioning and fastening requirements must be incorporated into a single welded component. The integral collar provides a functional reference point that distinguishes this design from conventional threaded weld studs.

Integral Collar Stop Geometry

The collar is machined as an integral feature between the weld base and threaded section, creating a fixed reference surface for component location, spacing control, and repeatable assembly positioning.

Controlled Stand-Off Dimension

The collar establishes a predetermined distance between the mounted component and parent material, reducing assembly variation and supporting dimensional consistency across production installations.

Load Distribution Surface

The increased bearing area provided by the collar helps distribute compressive loads generated during fastener tightening, reducing localized stresses on mounted components and mating surfaces.

Precision External Thread Profiles

Available with UNC-2A, UNF-2A, and ISO metric thread forms, allowing compatibility with standard industrial fastening systems while maintaining thread engagement requirements specified by engineering drawings.

ARC Weld Process Integration

Manufactured for installation using ferrule-shielded ARC stud welding equipment. Stud diameters are matched with corresponding ferrules, grips, chucks, and foot assemblies to support controlled weld formation and installation repeatability.

Custom Manufactured Configuration

Threaded Collar Weld Studs are typically produced to customer-defined dimensions, including collar diameter, collar thickness, body diameter, thread length, overall length, and material specification to satisfy application-specific requirements.
