This carbon steel cylindrical head shear stud complies with ISO13918 standard. It is welded to steel beams for steel‑concrete composite structures. It transfers shear force, avoids relative slip between steel and concrete, enhances structural stability, widely used in steel‑structure buildings and bridge projects.
IKING AWS D1.1 Shear Stud Connectors are cylindrical‑head welded studs engineered to satisfy AWS D1.1 structural welding code requirements for steel‑concrete composite construction. Made of premium low‑carbon steel, these shear connectors act as critical mechanical fasteners that bridge steel framing and cast‑in‑place concrete. Unlike ordinary bolts, shear studs are installed via stud arc welding, forming a permanent metallurgical bond onto steel beams, girders and metal floor decks.
In composite structural systems, steel and concrete will generate relative displacement under heavy working loads without proper connectors. Our shear studs bear shear force and resist uplift separation, ensuring steel substrates and concrete slabs work as one unified load‑bearing assembly. Every production batch follows strict metallurgical inspection to guarantee ductility, tensile strength and welding compatibility. No secondary drilling or bolt tightening is needed after welding, greatly cutting down field construction cycle. Our studs match common welding equipment on construction sites, delivering consistent welding quality even under variable outdoor site conditions.
Our AWS D1.1 shear stud connectors cover complete dimension series, ranging from 13mm to 25mm nominal diameter, multiple effective working lengths to fit different slab thickness. Raw material adopts standard carbon steel bar stock. Each stud carries stamped brand mark on the head end for traceability. Surface keeps natural black hot‑forged finish without extra coating by default; customized anti‑rust surface treatment can be provided upon client requirement.
All physical indicators comply with AWS D1.1 code, covering tensile strength, elongation ratio and bending performance. Each lot provides material test report for project acceptance. Tolerance of stud diameter, head thickness and total length follows industrial norms for stud welding fasteners. Custom non‑standard sizes are acceptable for special engineering demands.
IKING AWS D1.1 shear stud connectors serve composite steel‑concrete projects across many sectors. Primary usage includes multi‑story steel‑structure commercial building floor deck systems, where studs lock steel beam and concrete floor slab together to improve floor rigidity. They are widely used for highway and railway composite bridges, bearing dynamic traffic load. Besides, these studs apply for car park structures, industrial workshop steel frames, high‑rise office towers, overpass viaducts and modular building components. For infrastructure projects following American welding standards, this series studs become preferred fastener choice for contractors, fabricators and steel structure manufacturers.
We are an experienced manufacturer specialized in welding fastener series including shear studs, ceramic ferrules and related welding accessories. When you cooperate with IKING, you get more than standard shear stud goods.
First, strict production control: we monitor every forging, cutting and stamping procedure. Batch material test documents can be supplied to satisfy engineering audit requirement. Second, flexible solution support: besides standard AWS D1.1 studs, we support custom dimension and surface processing according to project drawing. Third, professional technical support: our team knows on‑site stud‑welding difficulties. We can give practical advice for stud selection and matching welding parameter reference. Fourth, stable supply capacity, short lead time for bulk orders. Fifth, complete product portfolio. You can source shear studs, matching ceramic ferrules and spare welding parts in one place to simplify your procurement workflow. We focus on long‑term cooperation with global steel‑structure distributors, fabricators and construction enterprises.
Q1: What standard does IKING shear stud follow?
A: This product meets AWS D1.1 structural welding specification, and it is also compatible with ISO13918 international shear stud standard.
Q2: Can these studs work with all stud welding guns?
A: They fit most common arc stud welding equipment. Matching ceramic ferrules shall be used during welding process for best welding result.
