2. Weld nut - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weld_nut

   Round base nuts. These nuts have a long threaded cylinder with a large circular base to make welding easy. They also sometimes have projections (known as weld nibs or bosses) to keep the nut from warping while welding with a high current. [1] Slab base nuts. These are very similar to the round base nuts, but with an obround, or slab shaped ...

3. Nut (hardware) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nut_(hardware)

   There is a wide variety of nuts, from household hardware versions to specialized industry-specific designs that are engineered to meet various technical standards. Fasteners used in automotive, engineering, and industrial applications usually need to be tightened to a specific torque setting, using a torque wrench.

4. Stud welding - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stud_welding

   Stud welding uses a flux tip and a ferrule, a ceramic ring which concentrates the heat, prevents oxidation and retains the molten metal in the weld zone. The ferrule is broken off of the fastener after the weld is completed. This lack of marring on the side opposite the fastener is what differentiates stud welding from other fastening processes ...

5. Aluminium joining - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aluminium_joining

   Aluminium alloys are often used due to their high strength-to-weight ratio, corrosion resistance, low cost, high thermal and electrical conductivity.There are a variety of techniques to join aluminium including mechanical fasteners, welding, adhesive bonding, brazing, soldering and friction stir welding (FSW), etc. Various techniques are used based on the cost and strength required for the joint.

6. Metal fabrication - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metal_fabrication

   Workers welding in parking garage. Welding is the main focus of steel fabrication. [8] Formed and machined parts are assembled and tack-welded in place, then rechecked for accuracy. If multiple weldments have been ordered, a fixture may be used to locate parts for welding. A welder then finishes the work according to engineering drawings (for ...

7. Fastener - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fastener

   Typical fasteners (US quarter shown for scale) A fastener (US English) or fastening (UK English) [1] is a hardware device that mechanically joins or affixes two or more objects together. In general, fasteners are used to create non-permanent joints; that is, joints that can be removed or dismantled without damaging the joining components. [2]
