Stud Welding Fasteners with Incredible Strength

Stud Welding Fasteners with Incredible Strength

 

Stud welding fasteners with incredible strength are some of the many outstanding products available through Sunbelt Stud Welding.  To receive the quality products you need now, contact us at (800) 462-9353.  With our long list of products, your stud welding fastener needs will be met with just this phone call.

 

Incredibly strong stud welding fasteners give our customers the ability to guarantee the durability and safety of their finished work 100%.

 

Stud Welded Fasteners

 

Stud welded fasteners are better than rivets, nuts and bolts, resistance welding and silver soldering or brazing. Consider this list of reasons why:

 

·              Versatile, mobile, portable equipment or high speed automatic equipment can be used

·              Fastening to most any thickness parent metal from .020” and up

·              Reverse side can be painted, polished, vinyl-clad or otherwise finished before welding

·              No drilling

·              No tapping

·              No clean-up

·              No broken tools

·              Won’t vibrate loose

·              No fillet – CD Welds

·              Extreme speed (only 5-6 milliseconds)

 

Stud Welding Fastener Applications

 

Stud welding fastener applications are extremely varied, but a few examples are electronics , aerospace, cookware, appliances, signs and decorative items. 

 

Still more are construction, insulation products, office furniture, equipment, refractory and material handling equipment.

 

Also examples are transportation, shipbuilding, wire tie down, home furnishings, sporting goods, toys and marine cable hangers (shipbuilding & offshore oil platforms.)

 

Full Fastener Strength

 

Full fastener strength is created where the weld and the parent metal are all equally strong.  Stud welding fasteners with incredible strength is also accomplished because the stud welding process eliminates the need for any holes, thereby never weakening the parent metal.

 

To enable your company’s utilization of the superior stud welding process, contact Sunbelt Stud Welding today at (800) 462-9353 and receive outstanding customer service while helping your company save time and money.

Hobart Handler 210 vs Millermatic   by Easy Metal Works

The Hobart Handler 210 is the portable (weighing only 76.5 lb or 34.8 kg, so you can take it easily from jobsite to jobsite) MIG welder that has maximum of 210 amps of welding power for handling 3/8 inch thick mild steel and enough control for 24 Gauge material. It is designed to handle a variety of materials including mild steel, stainless steel, and aluminum. The ease of connecting an optional direct plug-in spool gun expands the capability of the Handler 210 for aluminum welding.

It has enhanced magnetics and infinite wire feed speed control offers easier fine control of the output parameters for improved arc performance with less spatter, resulting in a better bead appearance and less cleanup.

If you have to do aluminum works, you have probably heard that TIG is the right choice for that. Not this time – Handler 210 welds aluminum as well as steel. You do get a bit of black but that easily wipes off as the magnesium in the aluminum oxidizes.

Ergonomics & Safety. Built-in contactor for easy use is also an excellent safety feature which makes wire electrically “cold” when not welding. You will have easy access to polarity changeover includes storage holes for spare tips. Dual groove drive rolls make it easy to switch between .023/.025-Inch (0.6 mm) and .030 to .035-Inch (0.8 – 0.9 mm) wire. And self-resetting thermal overload and motor protection prevents overheating.

Comparison. The Hobart 210 and similar Millermatic equivalents (Millermatic 180, 210, 211) have pretty much the same output, duty cycle and they use the same drive mechanisms. The feel and weld quality should be virtually identical. So what are the differences?

The Millermatic is a dual voltage machine that can operate on 230 or 115 volts. That means it would be easy to take it to a buddy’s house and weld lighter materials by plugging into a standard 115 volt circuit (20 amp service). However in order to take it with you, it should to be light. Millermatic does not fall into that category and also costs up to two times as much.

Millermatic offers adjustable voltage up to 7 positions, which might seem as a big plus, however experts sometimes consider infinitely adjustable voltage control not to be an advantage over the tapped voltage units. Tapped voltage units are easier to setup and get the arc dialed in.

The Millermatic will be of a slightly better build quality since Miller now owns Hobart and sells the Hobart as a lower cost alternative to the Millermatic line. They don’t usually skimp where it really counts though. Things like the drive mechanism will most likely be identical.

Hobart also offers more current for welding aluminum, so if you are uncertain so far but are planning to work mostly with aluminum go for Hobart. Spool gun coming with Hobart is the Miller Spoolmate 3035 equivalent.
