CD Stud Aluminium M5 x 10mm – Pack of 100

Premium Aluminium Capacitor Discharge (CD) Studs for Fast, Reliable Fastening

Product Overview

This pack of 100 CD Weld Studs is manufactured from high-quality aluminium, engineered for use with capacitor discharge (CD) stud welding systems. Sized at M5 thread x 10mm length, these studs are ideal for lightweight fastening applications where corrosion resistance and non-magnetic properties are essential. Each stud features a precision-machined tip designed for a clean, instant weld with minimal heat distortion — making them perfect for thin-gauge sheet metal work.

Key Features

• Material: Aluminium — lightweight, corrosion-resistant, non-magnetic
• Thread Size: M5 (metric coarse thread)
• Length: 10mm
• Pack Quantity: 100 studs per pack
• Welding Type: Capacitor Discharge (CD) stud welding — no pre-drilling required
• Finish: Bright aluminium, ready to use out of the box
• Weld Tip: Fusible tip for instant, high-strength bonding to aluminium and other compatible substrates

Benefits of CD Stud Welding

• Instant weld cycle (milliseconds) — no burn-through on thin materials
• No visible marking or distortion on the reverse side of the panel
• Strong, permanent fixing point without drilling, tapping, or riveting
• Ideal for stainless steel and aluminium sheet fabrication

Common Applications

• Automotive body panels and trim fixing
• Marine and boat building (aluminium hulls and fittings)
• Sheet metal fabrication and ductwork
• Signage and display panel assembly
• Caravan, trailer, and coachbuilding
• Kitchen and food-grade equipment manufacturing
• Architectural cladding and facade fixing

Compatibility

Designed for use with standard CD stud welding guns and machines (e.g., Nelson, HBS, Taylor Studwelding, or equivalent CD systems). Ensure your welding equipment is set for aluminium studs and adjust weld settings according to material thickness for best results.

Why Choose Aluminium CD Studs?

Aluminium studs are the preferred choice when working with aluminium substrates, as they ensure a like-for-like metallurgical bond, preventing galvanic corrosion that can occur when dissimilar metals are joined. This makes them essential for marine, automotive, and outdoor architectural applications where long-term durability is critical.
