About Arc Stud Welding

Arc Stud Welding is a process by which operators rapidly weld large diameter fasteners (>0.5″) to thick, rough metals. In Arc stud welding, an operator places a fastener (held in place by a chuck) and a ceramic ferrule against a parent metal by using an Arc stud gun. Once the operator pulls the trigger of the stud gun, a controlled electric arc melts the end of the fastener and the weld site, creating a strong fusion weld. The ceramic ferrule retains the heat and molten metal around the weld site. This further strengthens the fastener’s fusion to the parent metal. Additionally, the process of arc stud welding allows operators to weld dissimilar metals such as mild steel, stainless steel, and aluminum.
