Features:

Shear Stud Welding Studs are high-strength fasteners designed for steel-to-concrete composite structures. Through advanced arc stud welding technology, studs are permanently welded onto steel surfaces, forming a reliable mechanical bond that significantly improves structural load capacity and stability.

Made by high-quality, low-carbon, headed steel wire, make sure shear studs' mechanical properties and welding properties, and no cracks on the studs' heads.
High precision multi-station cold forming machine ensures high precision and constant shear stud dimensions, with a 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 makes the shear studs easy to insert into the ceramic ferrule hole, and get a 360-degree perfect weld collar.
Accurately calculated aluminium flux is automatically embedded by unique equipment, ensuring the welding quality and avoiding cavities in the welding bead.

Surface Treatment:

IKING shear connectors used high-quality low-carbon steel processed by pickling and phosphating, ensuring 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 workpiece. At the beginning of the welding process, the stud is lifted by the mechanism and, normally, first a pilot arc, then the main arc, is struck between the tip of the shear stud and the workpiece. 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. The figure shows the sequence of events using a ceramic ferrule.
