CD STUD S/S M6 X 8MM - PER 100 PACK

CD Weld Stud M6 x 8mm Stainless Steel – Capacitor Discharge Studs – Pack of 100

Premium stainless steel Capacitor Discharge (CD) weld studs, M6 thread x 8mm length, supplied in a convenient pack of 100. Engineered for fast, clean, single-sided welding with no visible marking on the reverse side — ideal for stainless steel fabrication, architectural panels, and precision manufacturing.

Full Product Description

Our M6 x 8mm Stainless Steel CD Stud Welding Studs are precision-manufactured fasteners designed specifically for the Capacitor Discharge (CD) stud welding process. This method uses a rapid, high-energy electrical discharge to fuse the stud to a metal substrate in milliseconds — producing a strong, reliable weld without heat distortion, discoloration, or burn-through on thin gauge materials.

Each stud features an integral weld tip that melts instantly on contact, forming a clean, structural bond suitable for base materials as thin as 0.5mm. Because there's no visible mark, discoloration, or deformation on the opposite (show) side of the panel, these studs are the preferred choice for applications where surface finish and appearance matter.

Key Features

• Thread Size: M6 (metric coarse thread)
• Length: 8mm (under-head length, weld tip to thread end)
• Material: Stainless Steel (corrosion-resistant, ideal for washdown, marine, and food-grade environments)
• Welding Process: Capacitor Discharge (CD) — no ferrule or shielding gas required
• Pack Quantity: 100 pieces per pack
• Finish: Bright stainless finish, no coating required
• Weld Side Marking: None — reverse side remains smooth and unmarked

Benefits

• ? No Show-Through – Perfect for visible/cosmetic surfaces since there's zero heat distortion on the reverse side
• ? Fast Cycle Times – CD welding completes in milliseconds, boosting production speed
• ? Corrosion Resistant – Stainless steel construction suits outdoor, marine, and hygienic applications
• ? Minimal Distortion – Ideal for thin-gauge stainless and aluminum sheets
• ? No Flux or Ferrules Needed – Cleaner process, less consumable waste
• ? Consistent Quality – Uniform tip geometry for repeatable, reliable welds

Typical Applications

• Stainless steel kitchen equipment and food processing panels
• Architectural cladding, handrails, and signage
• Elevator and lift car panels
• Automotive and transport body panels
• Marine fittings and fabrication
• Electrical enclosures and cabinet assembly
• Furniture and shopfitting fabrication

Compatibility

Compatible with standard CD (Capacitor Discharge) stud welding guns and machines used for short-cycle stud welding of studs up to M6/M8 range. Confirm your welding unit is set for CD mode (not drawn-arc) before use.

Pack Details

Supplied in a pack of 100 studs, ideal for production runs, workshops, and fabrication shops that need consistent stock on hand without frequent reordering.
