ARC WELD Studs

Standard Drawn Arc Weld Studs arethe preferred choice of all weld studs.

This style of stud uses embedded flux and an external shielding ferrule. With these components youcan achieve maximum weld penetration and reliability. These weld studs use a process which isrobust and provides excellent success under a broad range of conditions.

Flux cleanses the atmosphere during the weld preventing impurities from contaminating the weldzone. This flux serves the same purpose as the flux in flux core wire welding or as the shielding gas instandard MIG (GMAW) welding.

The ferrule serves 3 main purposes. First, it provides a limited atmosphere to maximize the flux loadeffectiveness; Second, it vents gasses generated during the welding process; and finally, it containsthe molten pool of metal and forms it into a uniform shape.

This style of stud also comes in a broad range of configurations. Some configurations include:standard round threaded, no thread, rectangular, square, internally tapped. See the remainder of thissection as well as the Specialty Stud section for more examples.

While Image tries to stock a good selection of commonly used weld fasteners, the particular one youneed may not be in stock. Image produces 60-70% of product to customer specifications. If you don’tsee what you are looking for then contact your Image sales representative or the Factory directly toachieve a solution that is optimal for your application.

Weld Stud SpecificationsMATERIAL: Standard mild steel studs (low carbon C1008-C1018) conform to ASTM A307 & ASTM F568. Stain-less Steel Studs (302/302 HQ/304 & 305) conform to ASTM F593 & F738. Other materials including aluminum,medium carbon steel, stainless 316 along with specialty steels, HY80 and HY100 are available on special order.For additional information contact your Image Sales Representative or the Factory directly.

THREAD: Standard thread is UNC-2A for U.S. threads and 6g for metric threads. This is important when gaugingthreads during inspection. Different thread specifications can be manufactured on a custom basis.

PLATING/COATING: Weld studs can be plated with a variety of materials including zinc (according to OSHAstandards), nickel, dichromat etc. Other plating or finishing requirements can be accommodated. PLEASE NOTE:The welding flux is not plated to prevent weld contamination, i.e. fluxing is done after plating.

ANNEALING: Upon request, stud ductility can be increased by annealing to Rockwell B, 75 max. for low carbonsteel and Rockwell B, 90 max. for stainless steel.

MECHANICAL PROPERTIES: All torque, tensile and shear values are calculated values based on a minimummaterial tensile specification. Typically, the material used exceeds these specifications. The calculated minimumsare provided as a reference. All torque and tensile values are calculated based on “working” limits. These workinglimits are designed for bolts which are to be reused instead of bolts which are for permanent installation. Anadditional 25% safety factor has been added to achieve the “working” level. The tensile and torque values are fortensile loading only. The shear values are for shear loading only. These values will be different for combinedtensile and shear stresses.

Standard Drawn Arc Process Description

Chuck

Stud

Ferrule

The gun is properlypositioned and the main

gun spring is partiallycompressed.

The trigger is pressed andthe stud lifts off the work.

An arc is created and meltsthe stud and parent

material.

After the arcing time iscompleted, the main springplunges the stud into the

molten pool of metal.

The gun is withdrawn fromthe welded stud. The ferrule

is broken away anddiscarded.

ARC WELD Studs

Pitch Diameter Mild Steel

Pitch Diameter and Full Thread Studs are the two most common types of Standard Drawn Arc Weld Studs.The primary advantage of a Pitch Diameter Stud versus a Full Thread Stud is in shear value. The PitchDiameter Stud will have a higher shear value than the same size Full Thread Stud. This is due to the slightlylarger base diameter of a Pitch Diameter Stud. However, since a Pitch Diameter Stud is not fully threaded itmay not be appropriate for your specific application. A Pitch Diameter Stud is best suited when there is amating part that covers the unthreaded portion of the weld stud.

ARC WELD Studs

Full Thread Mild Steel

Full Thread Studs are one of the two most common studs. The threads on a Full Thread Stud run the full length ofthe fastener (hence full thread). This simplifies many mating part concerns and is a favorite of engineering. APitch Diameter Stud requires that the mating part(s) cover the unthreaded portion of the fastener. Also, a PitchDiameter Stud is marginally stronger in shear than a Full Thread Stud due to the slightly larger diameter in theshear area.

ARC WELD Studs

No Thread Mild Steel

No Thread Studs simply do not have any threads. There are many uses for a No Thread Stud which include:stops, handles, locators etc. One item to note on No Thread Studs is that the body is the full dimension. A 1/2" NTis 1/2" in diameter whereas a 1/2" Pitch Diameter Stud is only .446" in diameter in the unthreaded portion.

Many different features can be put into a No Thread Stud such as grooves for retaining clips or springs, crossdrilled holes, slots, etc. Contact your Image Sales Representative or the Factory to find out if there may be aspecial part to meet your application.

ARC WELD Studs

Collar Stud Mild Steel

A Collar Stud has a flange or collar formed in the middle of the fastener. This style of weld stud has many uses. Itcan be used as a stand off to set one metal sheet above another. Often, this style stud can be used when othersare being considered. For example, a Collar Stud can replace Shoulder Studs and internally Tapped Studs inmany applications. The advantage is that Collar Studs are less costly than other types of studs in similar sizes.

Please note that the base length includes the thickness of the collar. This style of stud comes in a wide variety ofcombinations of Base Length and Thread Length. Contact your Image Sales Representative or the Factorydirectly to find out if we already manufacture a collar stud for your application.

Shear values aren't given for collar studs becausethe shear force is frequently off-set from the base.Therefore, shear value varies with each application.

ARC WELD Studs

Reduced Base Mild Steel

A Reduced Base Stud has a smaller diameter base than any other stud of equal thread diameter. This style ofstud is frequently used when the mating part tolerances are very tight and can not accomodate the extra filletdiameter of a Pitch Diameter or Full Thread Stud. Because of the extra processing involved, a Reduced BaseStud is typically more expensive than an equivalent Pitch Diameter or Full Thread Stud. Also, because the base isreduced in diameter the mechanical properties of the fastener are lower than for the equivalent thread size ineither Pitch Diameter or Full Thread Studs.

ARC WELD Studs

Full Base Mild Steel

A Full Base Stud is manufactured so the base of the stud is the same diameter as the nominal thread diameter.This gives a stud maximum shear capabilities for its diameter. A full base does not offer any increase in tensilesince the threads dictate the minimum affected stress area. These studs are frequently used in applications wheremaximum shear is important and maximum fastener size is limited. Due to required manufacturingprocesses, a Full Base Stud will be more expensive than equivalent size Pitch Diameter and Full Thread Studs.

Tapped Stud Mild Steel

An internally Tapped Stud, or Tapped Pad is a no thread stud which has a blind tap hole. This stud is used whenthe mating part must be attached with a bolt / threaded projection rather than a nut. This stud can bemanufactured in a variety of size / length configurations. Most Tap Pads are made to order.

If you are looking for an attachment boss, consider using a Collar Stud and nut combination for a cost / deliverysavings.

Shoulder Base Stud Mild Steel

A Shoulder Base Stud provides a boss area for mating parts to seat against. Shoulder Base Studs are made toorder. If you are thinking of using a Shoulder Base Stud, consider a Collar Stud. A Collar Stud will provide asimilar boss / land area as a Shoulder Base Stud at a cost / delivery time savings. The fundamental differencebetween a Shoulder Base Stud and a Collar Stud is that the base of a Shoulder Base Stud can handle more shearthan the base of a Collar Stud for a given thread size. However, a Collar Stud can be welded to a thinner gage ofmetal than a Shoulder Base Stud for a given thread size.

Pitch Diameter and Full Thread Studs are the two most common types of Standard Drawn Arc Weld Studs. The primary advantageof a Pitch Diameter Stud versus a Full Thread Stud is in shear value. The Pitch Diameter Stud will have a higher shear value thanthe same size Full Thread Stud. This is due to the slightly larger base diameter of a Pitch Diameter Stud. However, since a PitchDiameter Stud is not fully threaded it may not be appropriate for your specific application. A Pitch Diameter Stud is best suitedwhen there is a mating part that covers the unthreaded portion of the weld stud.

MARC WELD Studs METRIC

Full Thread Mild & Stainless Steels

Full Thread Studs are one of the two most common studs. The threads on a Full Thread Stud run the full length of the fastener (hence fullthread). This simplifies many mating part concerns and is a favorite of engineering. A Pitch Diameter Stud requires that the mating part(s)cover the unthreaded portion of the fastener. Also, a Pitch Diameter Stud is marginally stronger in shear than a Full Thread Stud due to theslightly larger diameter in the shear area.

No Thread Mild & Stainless Steels

No Thread Studs simply do not have any threads. There are many uses for a No Thread Stud which include: stops, handles, locators etc. Anitem to note on No Thread Studs is that the body is the full dimension. An 8 mm NT is 8 mm in diameter where as a 8 mm Pitch Diameter Studis only 7.87 mm in diameter in the unthreaded portion.

Many different features can be put into a No Thread Stud such as grooves for retaining clips or springs, cross drilled holes, slots, etc. Contactyour Image Sales Representative or consult the Factory directly to find out if there may be a special part to meet your application.

Collar Stud Mild & Stainless Steels

A Collar Stud has a flange or collar formed in the middle of the fastener. This style of weld stud has many uses. It can be used as a stand off to set onemetal sheet above another. Often, this style stud can be used when others are being considered. For example, a Collar Stud can replace Shoulder Studsand internally Tapped Studs in many applications. The advantage is that Collar Studs are less costly than other types of studs in similar sizes.

Please note that the base length includes the thickness of the collar. This style of stud comes in a wide variety of combinations of Base Length andThread Length. If you do not see exactly what you are looking for contact your Image Sales Representative or the Factory directly.

Reduced Base Mild & Stainless Steels

A Reduced Base Stud has a smaller diameter base than any other stud of equal thread diameter. This style of stud is frequently used whenthe mating part tolerances are very tight and can not accomodate the extra fillet diameter of a Pitch Diameter or Full Thread Stud. Becauseof the extra processing involved, a Reduced Base Stud is typically more expensive than an equivalent Pitch Diameter or Full Thread Stud.Also, because the base is reduced in diameter the mechanical properties of the fastener are lower than for the equivalent thread size ineither Pitch Diameter or Full Thread Studs.

A Full Base Stud is manufactured so the base of the stud is the same diameter as the nominal thread diameter. This gives a stud maximumshear capabilities for its diameter. A full base does not offer any increase in tensile since the threads dictate the minimum affected stressarea. These studs are frequently used in applications where maximum shear is important and maximum fastener size is limited. Due torequired manufacturing processes, a Full Base Stud will be more expensive than equivalent size Pitch Diameter and Full Thread Studs.

A Shoulder Base Stud provides a boss area for mating parts to seat against. Shoulder Base Studs are made to order. If you are thinking ofusing a Shoulder Base Stud, consider a Collar Stud. A Collar Stud will provide a similar boss / land area as a Shoulder Base Stud at acost / delivery time savings. The fundamental difference between a Shoulder Base Stud and a Collar Stud is that the base of a ShoulderBase Stud can handle more shear than the base of a Collar Stud for a given thread size. However, a Collar Stud can be welded to a thinnergage of metal than a Shoulder Base Stud for a given thread size.

CD WELD Studs

1/4" Mild Steel CD StudWelded to 1/8" Hot Rolled Plate

Cross Sectional View ShowingWeld Penetration

Standard Capacitor Discharge Stud

The Capacitor Discharge or CD StudWelding process is extremely fast.Weld times of .006 seconds can beachieved by using the gap process.Because of the short weld times, noflux or shielding gas is required toachieve good integrity welds.

Short weld times are good for welding onto thin sheet metal. Good welds can be achieved on sheet as thin as0.015" (0.4mm). On thicker gauges, excellent cosmetic results can be achieved with minimal reverse side marking.Such low heat is generated during the short weld times that reverse sides can be pre-painted without damage to thepaint.

Because of the short weld times, penetration is minimal. There is no porosity or weld contamination, but thepenetration is only a few thousands. Therefore, CD welds are excellent on thin gauges and / or in cosmeticapplications, but a process with longer weld times should be used for superior integrity.

Critical factors impacting CD weld results are weld voltage (set by the operator on the power supply) and ignition tiplength (controlled during the manufacturing process by Image Industries). If the weld voltage is not sufficient, therewill not be enough heat generated to successfully fuse the stud onto the base material. If the ignition tip, whichcontrols arc length, is not long enough, the weld will not have enough penetration to form a complete bond.

A common welding problem with CD Studs is to use a dimple or witness mark to locate stud position. The CD Studignition tip fits into the dimple. This effectively shortens the ignition tip length and results in shorter arc lengthswhich translates into less heat into the weld.

The Gap CD Welding Process welds studs faster than the Contact CD Process. Gap weld times can range from0.004 seconds to 0.010 seconds while contact times range from about 0.012 seconds to 0.020 seconds. While thistime difference is not critical from a production rate standpoint, it is critical when welding non ferrous alloys such asaluminum or brass. Because non ferrous alloys dissipate heat exceptionally well, a slow CD weld can melt andsolidify the base metal before the face of the stud has made contact with the base metal. Therefore, the GapProcess, which has faster stud velocities; ensures the stud contacts the base metal before the weld pool hassolidified. The downside to Gap CD is that it requires more sophisticated / expensive equipment.

CD & CD Gap Welding Process Description

CD Stud is positioned against workon the timing or ignition tip,

the gun mechanisms are compressed.

The Trigger is pulled, the timingtip vaporizes and an arc is formed.

This arc melts the bottom of thestud and top of the base metal.

The gun beginsto drive the studinto the base metal

At the end of travel, the power sourceis completely discharged and the studhas formed a complete bond with the

base material.

The gun trigger is pulled and thegun's mechanism accelerates towards

the weld site.

Upon contact with the base metal, theignition tip vaporizes and an arc is

formed. This arc melts the bottom of thestud and top of the base metal.

MATERIAL: Standard Mild Steel Studs (low carbon 1008-1018) conform to ASTM A307 & ASTM F568.Stainless Steel Studs (302/302 HQ/304) conform to ASTM F593 & F738. Aluminum Studs are manufactured from5356 alloy. Other materials are available on special order. To discuss your needs and match a process to thoseneeds, or alternate methods for locating CD Studs, consult your Image Sales Representative or the Factorydirectly.

THREAD: Standard thread is UNC-2A for U.S. threads and 6g for metric threads. This is important when gagingthreads during inspection. Different thread specifications can be manufactured on a custom basis.

PLATING/COATING: Carbon Steel CD Studs are typically furnished with a copper flash plating for betterconductivity and some corrosion resistance.

ANNEALING: Upon request, stud ductility can be increased by annealing to 75 Rockwell B for low carbon steeland 90 Rockwell B for stainless steel.

MECHANICAL PROPERTIES: All torque, tensile and shear values are calculated values based on a minimummaterial tensile specification. Typically, the material used exceeds these specifications. The calculated minimumsare provided as a reference. All torque and tensile values are calculated based on “working” limits. These workinglimits are designed for bolts which are to be reused instead of bolts which are for permanent installation. Anadditional 25% safety factor has been added to achieve the “working” level. The tensile and torque values are fortensile loading only. The shear values are for shear loading only. These values will be different for combinedtensile and shear stresses.

Advanced Process or AP Weld Studsare so named because they can beused with a variety of stud weldingprocesses.

These processes include; Drawn Arc, Capacitor Discharge, Short Cycle Drawn Arc, Gas Metal Arcand Short Cycle Gas Metal Arc. Because none of these processes use a flux load like standard DrawnArc they do not achieve as deep a weld penetration. Also, the weld penetration of these studs variesgreatly from one process to another. For instance, using an AP Stud with a Capacitive DischargeProcess will only achieve a few thousands penetration; while the same AP Stud using the Gas MetalArc Process will achieve penetrations approaching that of flux loaded studs. Additionally, various gasmixes will impact spatter and penetration.

Length reductions after welding vary with process selection. Capacitor Discharge length reduction isnegligible. Short Cycle & Short Cycle Gas Metal Arc length reduction is approximately 0.04 inches(1mm). Gas Metal Arc is approximately 0.120 inches (3mm) depending on the shielding gas selected.

None of the AP Processes utilize a ceramic shielding ferrule. This is an advantage from a materialhandling perspective. However, since the weld fillet is not contained, fillet formation is somewhatrandom and unpredictable. Flange concentricity, controlled in the stud manufacturing process, is onefactor which can aid in uniform fillets. Also, these processes are susceptible to a phenomenon knownas arc blow. This is a phenomena where the molten pool of metal flows away from the strongestground location. This can be compensated for with multiple ground points.

Overall this style stud is economical and flexible on process selection. With a few caveats it can fullfilthe requirements of many applications.

Gas, Gas Short Cycle & Short Cycle Process Description

Chuck

Stud

SparkShield

The gun is properly positioned and the gun lift mechanism is partially compressed.

The trigger is pressed and shielding gas floods the weld zone. The gun then lifts the stud off the work. An arc is created and melts the stud and parent material.

After the arc time is complete the gun lift mechanism plunges the stud into the molten pool of metal. Gas continues to flow until the molten metal is cool.

The gun is withdrawn from the welded stud and the operation is complete.

Weld Stud SpecificationsMATERIAL: Standard Mild Steel Studs (low carbon 1008-1018) conform to ASTM A307 & ASTM F568.Stainless Steel Studs (302/302 HQ/304) conform to ASTM F593 & F738.

THREAD: Standard thread is UNC-2A for U.S. threads and 6g for metric threads. This is important when gagingthreads during inspection. Different thread specifications can be manufactured on a custom basis.

PLATING/COATING: Carbon Steel AP Studs are typically furnished with a copper flash plating for betterconductivity and some corrosion resistance; however, they can be furnished with a plain finish for a cost savings.

ANNEALING: Upon request, stud ductility can be increased by annealing to 75 Rockwell B for low carbon steeland 90 Rockwell B for stainless steel.

MECHANICAL PROPERTIES: All torque, tensile and shear values are calculated values based on a minimummaterial tensile specification. Typically, the material used exceeds these specifications. The calculated minimumsare provided as a reference. All torque and tensile values are calculated based on “working” limits. These workinglimits are designed for bolts which are to be reused instead of bolts which are for permanent installation. Anadditional 25% safety factor has been added to achieve the “working” level. The tensile and torque values are fortensile loading only. The shear values are for shear loading only. These values will be different for combinedtensile and shear stresses.

To discuss your needs and match a process to those needs, or for additional information, consult your Image SalesRepresentative or the Factory directly.

Retaining Stud

Material: 302 HQ Stainless SteelUltimate Tensile 85 KPSI

Chemistry (%)

The Wire Tie Down Stud was designed specifically forquick and rugged wire management. Because this studis welded in place, there are no holes to drill and noscrews to loosen. With weld times in the millisecondrange, these wire ties install in a snap. Pull off exceedsthe capability of a typical 3/16” nylon tie strap.

INSTALLATION PROCEDURE:A) Insert the stud extension into the stud chuck.B) Position tie down against the work and pull the

trigger.C) Remove the gun from the stud.D) Break off the extension with a pair of pliers.

NOTE: The retainer stud finishes below the surfaceof the nylon for a smooth, non abrasivesurface.

This pin is welded onto an enclosure and acts asthe pivot pin in a hinge assembly. This part hasreplaced a screw machined item which is providingour customer with a substantial savings.

Insulation Cap

This is a cold formed, one piece cap which meetsmilitary specification. This cap then snaps ontoannular ring studs shown in specialty studs.

Double Ended Stud

This section covers other products that Image Industries has manufactured. None of these productsuse the stud welding process, but many are welded in place.

Cold Forming has advantages over the Screw Machining Process. First, screw machining is a cuttingprocess which removes material, cold forming forms the part to shape so no material is wasted. Thiscan result in tremendous cost savings. Second, screw machine is a slower process than forming.Forming produces more parts per hour which also leads to lower costs. Finally, cutting interrupts thematerial grain flow which can lead to a weaker component. Forming causes the grains to flow with thecontour of the part for superior performance.

Limitless number of shapes can be produced via cold forming. The possibilities are only limited by ourimaginations. The following drawings are small number of samples to show the range of possibilities.

Image Industries can manufacture double endedstuds to customer specification. Image does notscrew machine double ended studs. Rather, we formthe mid section and roll the threads. This is a fasterproduction method and since there is no cutting,there is no scrap. This manufacturing method canoften prove to be more economical and produceshigher quality threads.

This is a one piece component with three differentdiameters and a complex gear.

This component uses cold forming but is of interestdue to it’s small size (approximately .170” diameterby .200” long).

Though Image doesn’t ordinarily perform stampingoperations, we did this piece in-house in multiplelengths in order to meet our customer’s stringentrequirements.

Image can also perform assembly operations tomeet the needs your product needs. In this example,three different pieces (all manufactured by Image)are assembled using two different weldingprocesses.

Ferrule Part

Number

Ferrules serve multiple purposes in stud welding. First, the ferrule helps to shield the arc from theoperator. Second, it minimizes the atmosphere that the flux must purge. Third, the ferrule formsthe molten metal into the fillet. Finally, the fillet vents allow weld gases to escape.

Ferrules are disposable items. As disposable items they are mass manufactured quickly andinexpensively. Ferrules are cast in a mold out of a low grade moldable ceramic. They are taken outof the mold and are dried. Because of this manufacturing method, ferrule tolerances can be greaterthan machining or other manufacturing processes. Therefore, it is not recommended to fixture offof a ferrule when exact location is required.

N When arc studs are welded, the excess material forms a fillet around the base of the stud. If aferrule is used, the fillet formation can be controlled. Because the diameter of the fillet isgenerally larger than the diameter of the stud it is necessary to account for this in the design ofmating parts. Below are some common methods of design considerations to accomodate theweld fillet:

(A) Dog Clamp (B) Oversize Clearance Hole (C) Gasket Material

Another choice is to select Reduced Base Weld Studs (RB Studs).While this will resolve many mating part clearance problems, theshear and tensile strength are reduced. Additionally, RB style studsare more expensive due to additional manufacturing steps.

Many customers can take advantage of centerpunch marks from a turret press. When usingStandard Drawn Arc Studs, the flux ball willtypically fall into the center punch mark. Whenusing short cycle or gas arc welding, Imagecan provide a special Center Punch Stud. TheCenter Punch stud is engineered with a specialtip to assist in locating the center punch mark.This method will not work with CapacitorDischarge (CD) welding.

This is a quick and easy template method, though location is notextremely precise. Many customers have the templateprogrammed into a turret press or plasma/laser cutter for quickreplacements. The template is typically made from 3/32 to 3/16”thick steel or aluminum. Spacers (minimum of .09) are requiredfor venting weld gasses. The template hole size should equal themaximum ferrule outside diameter plus 0.03”. Tolerance on ferruleoutside diameter is ±0.015. This means that the final tolerancecould be as much as ±0.030.

This method provides accurate & repeatable stud location. Locationaccuracy of ±.005 is possible using this method. Spacers(minimum of .09) are required for venting weld gasses.

Bushings should be made from a non-metallicmaterial to minimize the effects of arc blow. ForStandard Drawn Arc Studs, the bushing is sizedfor a Template Tube Adapter or for a Teflon TubeAdapter. When welding with a Gas Arc, ShortCycle or CD process the bushing is sized for aSpark Shield. Contact your Image SalesRepresentative or the Factory directly for Bushingsize.

The template should be approximately 1 inch tall. The thicker template/bushing can help to ensure that the operatorinstalls the stud in a perpendicular fashion.

If even better location methods are required, Image manufactures production guns and autofeed guns which can be mounted toprecision fixtures and slides. These guns offer strict tolerances for exceptional accuracy. For more information on these piecesof equipment contact Image.

CAUTION:

Using the distortion-energy theory; Maximum Shear Stress equals .577 times the Maximum Tensile.

Fasteners should not be used at their tensile or shear limits. A safety factor must be applied to engineering calculations. The particular safety factor will vary depending on the application. The end user will choose the safety factor for his/her application.

Preload for reuse of threaded fastener is 75% of Proof Load. Fastener may be rebolted multiple times with no degradation.

Preload for permanent installation of fastener is 90% of Proof Load. Fastener is permanently stretched and will not achieve the same clamping force on reuse.

Friction Coefficient will vary greatly depending on bolting conditions including lubrication. 0.2 is standard when bolt condition is plain finish or unknown.

Ultimate Torque is not useful in designing a bolted joint. Preloaded torque is more practical. This data is provided as a reference only.

CAUTION:

Data provided by our suppliers

Proof Tensile is estimated to be 90% of Yield Tensile when Proof Tensile data is not readily available.

Preload for reuse of threaded fastener is 75% of Proof Load. Fastener may be rebolted multiple times with no degradation.

Fasteners should not be used at their tensile or shear limits. A safety factor must be applied to engineering calculations. The particular safety factor will vary depending on the application. The end user will choose the safety factor for his/her application.

Preload for permanent installation of fastener is 90% of Proof Load. Fastener is permanently stretched and will not achieve the same clamping force on reuse.

Friction Coefficient will vary greatly depending on bolting conditions including lubrication. 0.2 is standard when bolt condition is plain finish or unknown.

Ultimate Torque is not useful in designing a bolted joint. Preloaded torque is more practical. This data is provided as a reference only.

Using the distortion-energy theory; Maximum Shear Stress equals .577 times the Maximum Tensile.

Stress area for the treads is calculated on an area approximately half way between the root diameter and pitch diameter. This more closely reflects actual results versus using root diameter for stress area calculations

A) If the power source has a stick welding mode the output terminals and any tools connected are alwayselectrically “hot”. In stud welding mode the output terminals are electrically “hot” only while welding.Use only the proper tool with the selected welding mode.

B) Always protect yourself from possible electric shock.

1) Never allow contact between the electrically “hot” portions of the circuit and your bare skin orwet clothing. Wear dry, hole-free gloves to insulate your hands.

2) Always insulate yourself from ground by using dry insulation when welding in damp locationsor metal floors, gratings or scaffolds and particularly when large areas of your body can be incontact with possible grounds such as sitting or lying down.

3) Maintain all the equipment such as stud gun, electrode holder, ground clamp, welding cableand welding machine in good, safe operating condition.

4) NEVER dip the stud gun or electrode holder in water for cooling.

5) If two welders are connected together, the open circuit voltage can be the sum of the two.Never touch the electrically hot portions of the circuit.

6) If the welder is used as a power supply for automatic welding, the same precautions areapplicable to the automatic unit.

C) When working above floor level, protect yourself from a fall should you get a shock or startled. Neverwrap the electrode cable around any part of your body.

D) Arc burn may be more severe than sunburn.

1) When stud welding, safety goggles should be worn by the operator. A shaded No. 3 lens issuggested.

2) When stick welding, arc-air gouging, or observing the same, use a head shield with the properfilter and cover plates to protect your face and eyes from sparks and the ultraviolet rays of anarc. The filter lens should conform to ANSI Z87.1 standards.

3) Use suitable clothing to protect your skin and that of people around you from the arc rays andsparks.

4) When stick welding or arc-air gouging, protect nearby personnel with suitable, non-flammablescreening and warn then not to watch the arc or expose themselves to the arc rays, hotspatter or metal.

E) Droplets of molten slag and metal are thrown or fall from the welding arc. Protect yourself with oil freeprotective garments such as leather gloves, heavy shirt, cuffless trousers, high shoes and a cap tocover your head. When welding out of position, or in confined areas, wear ear plugs.

F) When in a welding area, always wear safety glasses. Safety glasses with side shields are a mustwhen near a slag chipping area.

G) Move fire hazards to a place safely away from the welding area. Welding sparks and hot materialsgenerated at the welding arc will go through small cracks and openings into adjacent areas.

H) When not manual arc welding, place the welding tool where it is insulated from the ground system.Accidental grounding can cause overheating and create a fire hazard.

I) Connect the ground cable as close to the welding area as practical. Ground cables connected to thebuilding framework or other locations some distance from the welding area increase the possibility of thewelding current passing through lifting chains, crane cables of other alternate circuits. This creates firehazards. Overheating of lifting chains or cables can cause them to fail.

J) Welding can produce hazardous fumes and gasses. Use adequate ventilation and avoid breathing thesefumes and gases. Welding on galvanized, lead or cadmium plates produces toxic fumes.

K) No welding should be done in locations near chlorinated hydrocarbon vapors such as degreasing andpainting stations. The heat and rays of the arc can react with the solvent vapors to form phosgene, a highlytoxic gas, and other irritating by-products.

L) Do not heat, weld or cut tanks, drums or containers until the necessary steps have been followed to insurethat no flammable, irritating or toxic vapors can be formed by the residue.

M) Vent hollow castings or containers before heating, cutting or welding. A pressure build up may cause it toexplode.

N) For more detailed safety information, consult the pamphlet, “Welding Safety”, published by the U.S.Department of Health, Education and Welfare, DHEW (NIOSH), Publication No. 77-131. It is alsorecommended that you purchase, read and follow the directions of “Safety in Welding & Cutting, ANSIStandard Z49.1” for $5.00 from the American Welding Society, Miami, Florida, 33125.

POWER SUPPLY SAFETY Precautions

A) Always connect the frame of the power supply to ground in accordance with the National Electrical Codeand the manufacturer’s recommendations.

B) Installation, servicing or trouble shooting should only be done by qualified personnel trained to work on thistype of equipment.

C) Before servicing any piece of equipment, turn off the disconnect switch at the fuse box.

D) When in operation, all covers must be on the equipment.

GlossaryAmperage See Current

Arc-Blow The effect where the weld fillet runs away from the ground connection. The electricfields generated during the weld repel the fillet material away from the location of theground. If this is a concern, it can frequently be addressed through the use of doublegrounds.

Bellows The rubber boot that slides over the chuck adapter. This helps to keep dirt, weldspatter and other foreign contaminants from entering the internal gun mechanism.

Burn-Off The amount of stud consumed during the weld. This “burn-off” material forms theweld fillet.

Burn Through A condition where the weld excessively distorts or actually melts through the basematerial. This is caused by an excessively hot weld or by using base material that istoo thin.

Chuck The device that holds the weld stud during the welding process. It fits into the chuckadapter. This is a consumable component and should be replaced when worn.

Chuck Adapter This component of the stud gun holds the chuck and connects to the internal liftingmechanisms. The weld current flows from the weld cable to the lifting mechanism tothe chuck adapter to the chuck and finally into the stud.

Control Cable This is the thin cable that connects the stud gun to the controller. This cable carriesthe trigger signal from the gun to the controller and the lifting voltage back from thecontroller to the gun.

Controller The controller initiates the pilot arc, sends the lift signal to the stud gun, starts theweld current at the right instant, and controls the duration of the weld. The controllercan be a separate “box” or an internal component as in self contained units.

Current The flow of electricity is referred to as current and is expressed in Amperes (Amps).There are two types of current: Alternating Current (AC) and Direct Current (DC).Direct current always flows one way: from negative to positive. DC is polarized whichmeans there is a definite negative and positive connection. Alternating current (the typeyou get from a wall socket) flows back and forth. AC is non-polarized, you can reversethe connections and not alter anything. Stud Welding uses DC current.

It should be noted that current is an electron flow. The amount of current requireddetermines the size (diameter) of the cable needed. The larger the cable the morecurrent it can carry. See resistance.

Ferrule A ceramic shield used in arc stud welding. The purpose of the ferrule is to containsparks, heat and molten metal in the weld zone while keeping gasses and impuritiesout.

Ferrule Grip Holds the ferrule during the weld sequence. This is a consumable item and should bereplaced when worn.

Fillet The ring of weld metal that surrounds the stud after welding.

Flux Ball The flux load is pressed into the end of most weld studs. During the weld process theflux load vaporizes and consumes the oxygen at the weld site. This helps to eliminatecontaminates in the weld itself.

Foot This stud welding component is attached to the legs and it holds the ferrule grip. Thecombination of the legs, foot and ferrule grip determine plunge.

Ground All equipment should be grounded (the exception is double insulated equipment).The reason for grounding is that the voltages used are always at a potential leveldifferent from the ground, and if a good conduction path is established between theequipment and the ground there can be no potential difference developed betweenthe equipment and anyone who is standing on the ground. If any voltage is leaked itwill be conducted away through the ground path rather than through the operator. Forthe equipment to be properly grounded you must be able to read continuity (no resis-tance between the ground pin on the plug and any conductive surface on the equip-ment.

Gun See Stud Gun

Hang Up A condition where the stud gun does not plunge the stud into the weld pool properlyand only a partial weld occurs. This can be caused by the internal mechanismsbinding or more commonly by the stud hitting the ferrule. Remedy by adjusting thefoot.

Lift This motion is essential to the stud weld process since it creates a gap which thecurrent must bridge. This air-gap increases the electrical circuit resistance andgenerates the heat necessary to melt the stud and parent material for the weld. If nogap exists there would be a direct short to the base material and sufficient heat wouldnot develop. Short lift may cause molten metal to bridge the arc gap and seriouslyhamper weld quality. Excessive lift may result in the arc being interrupted andinconsistent which can cause poor weld results.

Pilot arc This is the initiating arc which is first formed while the stud is being lifted off the work.It establishes the path for the weld current.

Plunge The amount of stud, typically 1/8”, which protrudes beyond the ferrule when the studgun is in its normal state. This represents the portion of the stud to be used in formingthe weld fillet. Short plunge may cause incomplete fillet formation while too muchplunge may cause excessive splatter which may also leave incomplete fillets or unevenfillet formation.

Plunge damper A device which slows the rate which a stud plunges into the weld pool. This reducesthe amount of splash from the molten metal and helps to form a uniform weld fillet.This typically is only necessary for stud diameters over 1/2”.

Power Supply The power supply can be external, such as a generator or a transformer-rectifier.Ideally, it should have an open-circuit DC voltage in the 70-120 volt range. The currentrequired depends on the stud diameter to be welded. A general rule of thumb is 100amps for every 1/16” diameter. For example, a 1/4” stud will require 400 amps of weldcurrent. A power supply can also be internal and are called self contained units.Smaller units (1/2” diameter stud capacity) usually hook up to 220 or 440 volt singlephase power. Larger units require 220 or 440 volt three phase power.

Resistance Resistance is the opposition to current flow and is expressed in Ohms. The moreresistance the more Ohms. Whenever electrical flow is impeded by resistance heat isgenerated (it is this heat that allows stud welding to work). For example, a 40 footcable will have twice the resistance of a 20 foot cable of the same type.

Tensile - Proof The maximum amount of pulling force a stud can take with out being permanentlystretched.

Tensile - Ultimate The amount of pulling force required to fracture a stud.

Tensile - Working This is a tensile value based on proof tensile with an additional 25% safety factor.

Tensile - Yield The amount of pulling force on a stud which causes it to be permanently stretched.

Torque The amount of rotation force applied to a stud. This is generally a poor measurebecause so many things like: plating, lubrication and temperature can affect torquereadings.

Torque - Working This is the amount of torque (using a standard coeffiecient of friction of .2) required toachieve the working tensile.

Shear The amount of force a stud can take across the diameter of the fastener.

Shear - Yield The amount of shear force that, when exerted, causes the material to permanentlydeform.

Stud Gun This is the unit the operator holds. It is connected to the controller via the control cableand to the power supply via the weld cable. Besides holding the stud, the gun handlesthe lift, plunge and trigger functions. In other words, the gun tells the controller when tobegin the weld cycle, then it executes all the weld functions from the controller tocomplete the cycle

Time This is the duration of the weld. The general rule is that as the stud diameterincreases, the weld time is increased. In cases where there is limited base materialthickness, shorter than normal weld time is used and the amperage is increased to givesufficient heat to the weld.

Voltage The electrical potential difference from one point to another. Electrical current flow isthe result of an electrical path (such as a wire) being established between two points ofdifferent potential, or voltage levels. If the potentials are continually interchanging andthe current flows back and forth, it is AC voltage. This is the type of voltage a generatorwould provide. On the other hand, if one potential is always higher than the other, suchas a battery, it is DC voltage. In DC the higher potential is called positive and the lowerpotential is called negative.

Weld Cable This is the large diameter cable which carries the power for the pilot arc and thewelding current to the arc stud.
