ARC WELD STUDS: RECTANGULAR-'T' SLOTTED ARC FASTENERS

The Rectangular Slotted Arc Stud, sometimes called a "C" slot or "T" slot, is a rectangular pin for application with arc stud welding equipment. This type of stud welded fastener is usually pointed on the weld end for studwelding applications. Available in low carbon steel and stainless steel as standards, other special materials and grades are available. Rectangular in shape, the weld stud is slotted on its upper portion and can be used to retain mating parts or “closed” to retain the part in question. Studwelding of the weld stud burns off a portion of the base so that the pre-weld, post-weld length dimension should be considered. All orders for arc weld studs from Midwest Fasteners include ceramic studwelding ferrules properly sized for the weld stud ordered.
