Welded Shear Studs Manufacturer & Shear Stud Supplier

Premium Welded Shear Studs for Composite Steel Construction
IKING is one of the professional shear stud connector manufacturers specializing in high-quality welded shear studs for structural steel and composite construction. Our weld shear connector studs are manufactured according to ISO 13918, AWS D1.1, BS 5400 and GB/T10433 standards, ensuring excellent welding performance, stable mechanical properties and long service life.
Available in diameters from 10mm to 25mm, including the popular 19mm shear studs, our products are widely used in bridges, steel buildings, power plants, shipyards and industrial projects worldwide.
As an experienced shear stud supplier, IKING provides factory-direct pricing, OEM customization, fast delivery and complete stud welding solutions including ceramic ferrules and stud welding machines.
Features:
Made by high quality low carbon headed steel wire, make sure shear studs mechanical properties and welding property, no cracks on studs' heads.
High precision multi-station cold forming machine, ensure high precision and constant shear studs dimensions, round chamfer at the end of the studs.
High precision dimensions make the shear studs easy to load into the welding gun chuck and hold tight properly; Flat weld end with round chamfer make the shear studs easy to insert into the ceramic ferrule hole, and get 360 degree perfect weld collar.
Accurate calculated aluminium flux embedded by unique equipment automatically, ensure the welding quality and avoid cavities in the welding bead.
19mm Shear Studs Price
The 19mm welded shear stud is one of the most commonly used sizes in composite steel construction.
The final 19mm shear studs price depends on:
Material grade
Stud length
Order quantity
Surface treatment
Packaging requirements
Shipping destination
For bulk orders, IKING offers factory-direct quotations and customized manufacturing services.
Surface Treatment:
IKING shear connectors used high quality low carbon steel proceed by pickling and phosphating, ensure the studs have long time anti-rust condition.

Welding Process
Drawn arc stud welding for shear connectors can be done mechanically or automatically, using welding guns or welding heads. The shear stud is inserted into the stud holder and – fitted with a ceramic ferrule, if necessary – applied to the work piece. At the beginning of the welding process, the stud is lifted by the mechanism and, normally, first a pilot arc, then the main arc, are struck between the tip of the shear stud and the work piece. This causes the face of the stud and the parent material to melt. When the welding time has elapsed, the shear stud is plunged with little force (< 100 N) into the molten pool, and the current source is switched off. The ceramic ferrule is then removed. Figure shows the sequence of events using a ceramic ferrule.

FAQ
Q: What is the difference between weld studs and shear studs?
A: All shear studs are a type of load-bearing weld studs, but ordinary weld studs only serve fixing purposes. Weld shear connector studs (shear studs) feature special thick round heads to resist horizontal shear force between steel and concrete. Our core product line focuses on structural shear studs, including hot-selling 19mm shear studs for heavy-load engineering.
Q: What is the most popular size?
A: The 19mm shear studs are our best-selling size among all specifications. This size balances bearing capacity and construction efficiency, widely chosen by contractors for composite decks, bridges and high-rise buildings. Many buyers contact our shear stud supplier team directly to place bulk orders of 19mm shear studs.
