Stainless Steel Material & Manufacturing Process
Our Type PD Stud for Arc Stud Welding are manufactured using premium-grade stainless steel, typically A2 (304) or A4 (316) variants. These materials are chosen for their superior mechanical strength, excellent corrosion resistance, and high weldability.
The manufacturing process includes multiple critical steps:
- Raw material selection and testing
- Cold or hot forming
- Precision threading (rolled or cut)
- Deburring and polishing
- Passivation or surface treatment (optional)
- 100% inspection before packaging
Advanced CNC and automated threading machines ensure dimensional accuracy and consistency across large production batches.
