304 stainless steel internally threaded weld nut studs (also known as spot weld studs, capacitor discharge weld studs, stud weld studs) are specially designed for welding and fixing onto metal sheets. Made of premium 304 stainless steel, they can be permanently bonded to metal surfaces via capacitor discharge welding, spot welding or stud welding to form durable internal thread connection points. Five metric thread sizes M3, M4, M5, M6, M8 are available with lengths ranging from 4mm to 30mm to meet welding requirements for different sheet thicknesses. You can choose natural 304 stainless steel finish or copper-plated surface treatment. Multiple package options including 5/10/20/50 pieces are provided for selection.

This weld nut stud supports capacitor discharge welding, spot welding and stud welding. Capacitor discharge welding delivers ultra-short welding time under 20ms with minimal heat affected zone, which is ideal for thin sheet welding.
Yes. 304 austenitic stainless steel offers good corrosion and rust resistance, suitable for indoor and outdoor humid environments, but proper welding procedures are required to avoid intergranular corrosion.
Thread options: M3, M4, M5, M6, M8; Length range: 4mm–30mm; Surface: natural stainless steel or copper plated. Pack options: 5/10/20/50pcs. Please confirm specifications before purchase.
1. Clean oil and oxide on metal sheet before welding; 2. Place the weld stud at target position; 3. Adjust current and pressure for capacitor discharge welder or spot welder; 4. Complete welding; 5. Inspect thread and remove welding spatter.
Higher electrode pressure is needed for stainless steel compared with mild steel. Adjust welding current and time according to sheet thickness and stud size. Clean weld slag inside threads with tap after welding. Control heat input to prevent intergranular corrosion of 304 stainless steel.
Our 304 stainless steel / copper plated internal thread weld nut studs (M3-M8, 4-30mm) are precision manufactured for sheet metal welding assembly. The 304 austenitic stainless steel material provides reliable rust and corrosion resistance, with optional copper plating to meet different process requirements. Multiple compatible welding processes ensure strong full-section metallurgical bonding while reducing thermal deformation. A complete range of metric sizes and flexible packaging options cover light to heavy fastening needs for automotive, electronics, machinery and construction industries. Please verify thread specification, length and surface finish before ordering to achieve perfect installation and stable long-term connection performance.
