How To Weld Studs To Plate

- welding studs into plate isn't really that hard to do. I got asked by a subscriber to show how to weld studs into plate for mounting flangeplates to another plate. The subscriber was asking how to do it with stick welding but I don't have my stick welder set up currently so I used mig welding studs.
To start off i drilled two 3/8" holes into a piece of flat bar to simulate the plate. I then drilled one of the two holes partially bigger to give a bevel in the plate to make the weld have more surface are to weld to. I then also cut the head off of a bolt and beveled it to go into the hole we just beveled. and got everything mocked up and tacked everything and welded it. After that I welded the normal bolt into it to show how that is done.

Nice video! I have to make a CVT clutch holder / spring release tool and will be using this technique to weld a long bolt into some plate steel.
Cool content! Keep up the great work, cheers!
Thanks! I will!
That t-shirt has seen some stuff! Great video
Sure has
Great tips, thanks.
Glad I could help
Hey this topic was asked by a Subscriber and I hope this helps him out! If he needs more detail I’d gladly answer any questions he has!
I prefer the one where you cut the head off the bolt and beveled it. I was going to try using a 1/16" 6013 electrode, but you have to hold the stinger at some weird angle which makes it really difficult.
Protected Profile not only that but at the same time it makes a ridge (from the weld) that won’t allow anything to sit level or flush on top of!
TY!
You are welcome! Sorry I haven’t been posting videos often right now got busy prepping for hunting season... I just got ideas on what I could do some videos on! Some of the hunting gear I need to make!
@@adamswelding5052 Well, this was very helpful. I'm going to use this procedure on my kid's dirt bike tonight. It's got a worn out, non-replaceable stud that supports the gear shift lever. No way to address it with parts ☹️
When stick welding ,for most joints,do u just drag the rod or move it over and back to create a wide bead
John Duggan depends of the joint stringer(just straight dragging) create a stronger weld, but sometimes it is faster but still acceptably strong to weave(move the rod side to side to spread out the weld puddle making a wider head)
@@adamswelding5052 cheers thanks
Perhaps preheat prior to welding?
what is recommended amps to use for bolt welding like this
The amperage depends on the material and the size of bolt, but I typically stay with the amperage to weld the base metal and not the bolt thickness
Well my first thoughts are none of above, here is a curve for you and anyone watching, need a stud on a tube, can't insert bolt from back side, but thin wall tube, so do to vibration and stress, the weld stud won't work as will crack, so need to drill and tap round bar stock, then drill hole to insert bar stock, and weld it in, that way its level on top, as and stronger than stud welded, most common was custom motorcycle gas tanks, 1/4" to 5/16" stud. So definitely will break unless use inserts.
Randy mack I agree on thick material do it that way but on thin plate 1/4 and thinner it isn’t necessary used this on several methods to mount stuff and it has held up fine but you are right if it is a critical failure point I’d recommend tapping the material first!
And also Randy Mack I agree anything thin Like a motorcycle frame I’d do like you said that would be the strongest way to do it!
I grew up around bikers and motorcycles, so my first thought will be different than most, but gas tanks with 2 small studs holding in place, yeah, any competent bike builder plugs a slug into frame to thread a stud into, also can't thread frame, won't last, as not enough threads to hold, usually .125 wall. But carry on, just wanted to bring up welding slugs in as a stronger alternative, if can't get to backside.
No no nothing wrong I’m glad you said that, the purpose of the channel is to help this who watch this channel is to help people learn and think of different ways to do things!
@@adamswelding5052 if you have access to acetylene, I would be interested in a little oxy welding. Filling holes in sheetmetal and fixing up air compressor tanks and such. I believe you can weld aluminum with it, too. I need to order some gas filler rods. I made improvements to my harbor freight abrasive blaster because it was clogging up instantly, but now I have to extend the flimsy hollow tube legs because the oversized mixing chamber and valve now extend all the way to the ground.
