IKING FD type fully‑threaded arc weld studs comply with ISO13918‑2017. Made of carbon steel, for drawn‑arc stud welding. Full‑thread design, stable welding performance. Widely used in steel structure, machinery equipment and metal connection projects.
IKING FD type fully‑threaded arc weld studs are drawn‑arc welding fasteners manufactured in compliance with ISO 13918‑2017 international standard. As a full‑thread welding stud, the whole shank is covered with complete thread profile, without smooth unthreaded section. Designed for drawn‑arc stud welding process, these studs require matching ceramic ferrules during welding operations to shape the weld collar and shield molten metal from air contamination.
Produced from premium carbon steel material, our FD fully‑threaded arc weld studs deliver stable mechanical performance and consistent welding results. The special tapered tip ensures reliable arc ignition for fast and firm connection onto base metal. After welding, complete thread is still reserved above the weld joint, allowing customers to mount nuts and assemble additional components conveniently. Our FD weld studs cover multiple metric thread sizes to satisfy diverse industrial connection requirements. Compared with other arc stud types, FD series provides more flexible post‑weld assembly advantages for projects needing threaded fastening after welding.

FD fully‑threaded arc weld studs are widely adopted across numerous industrial sectors. In steel construction industry, they are used for fastening brackets, mounting auxiliary fittings on steel beams and steel plates. For mechanical equipment manufacturing, these weld studs serve for fixing equipment housings, support frames and internal assembly parts.
They perform well in vehicle manufacturing for mounting interior and exterior structural accessories. In metal cabinet and control cabinet production, FD weld studs enable efficient threaded stud fixation on thin metal sheets without drilling through panels. Besides, they are popular for elevator components, metal furniture, pipeline support systems and general metal fabrication projects. Thanks to the retained full thread after welding, engineers can carry out secondary assembly by screwing nuts directly without extra tapping operations.

Q1: Do FD arc weld studs need ceramic ferrules for welding?
A1: Yes. FD fully‑threaded studs belong to drawn‑arc welding series. Matching ceramic ferrules are necessary to form qualified weld collar and prevent oxidation during welding.
Q2: What material options are available for FD weld studs?
A2: Carbon steel is our regular material. Stainless‑steel FD weld studs can be supplied upon customer request for corrosion‑resistant working environments.
Q3: Can you provide non‑standard length FD weld studs?
A3: Custom lengths beyond standard scope are acceptable. Please send us your detailed drawing or parameter requirements for quotation.
Q4: What is the difference between FD type and PS type weld studs?
A4: FD is full‑thread drawn‑arc stud needing ceramic ferrule. PS type is short‑cycle weld stud with bottom flange, no ferrule needed. They apply for different welding machines and working conditions.
