Introducing Arc Stud Welding
Drawn arc stud welding with ceramic ferrule or shielding gas is mostly used for stud diameters of 3
to 25mm and a welding time of 100 to 1,500ms.
Drawn arc stud welding with ceramic ferrule is recommended for studs with a diameter of more
than 12mm. If it is required to protect the weld pool from atmosphere, shielding gas should be
used. This process variant is also used with automated applications.

Threaded Studs for Wear Plate
Antec carry a large range of threaded Arc Studs for use on wear plates such as hardox and
bisalloy.
Typically the reduced base style arc stud is preferred as the weld collar is very close to the thread
diameter, therefore reducing the hole size required in the side walls these are typically mounted
to.

There are a number of important factors that should be considered when purchasing Shear
Connectors for composite support or bridge construction projects to ensure the greatest value
for money and effectiveness.
If the answer is no to any of the above, then the products may be inferior and possibly non-
compliant.
Antec’s range of Shear Connectors are the only Shear Connectors in Australia that are fully stud
base and mechanically tested by an Australian NATA testing authority to meet and exceed the
AS1554.2 standard of compliance for Shear Connectors sold in Australia.
The unique “E” head marking on the Antec Shear Connector range provides users with a visual
reference that offers peace of mind that the products are manufactured to stringent quality
standards. Don’t be fooled by inferior products offered at lower costs! Shear Connectors
supplied from an unknown origin with little or no documentation to support materials, flux
content, base designs and standards of compliance can result in significant, catastrophic
consequences such as stud failures. Poor quality, inconsistent products may lead to safety issues
and diminished building and construction integrity resulting in long term extensive repair costs,
negating the original cost savings.
Antec has been manufacturing and distributing Shear Connectors in Australia for over 20 years
and is dedicated to manufacturing and supplying the highest quality products to ensure the
highest level of safety and reliability.

ISO Fastening systems for insulation
HBS fasteners for heating, ventilation and air conditioning enable fastening of insulation mats in a fast and
cost efficient way using ISO-PLUS cupped head pins. With this procedure you fasten the insulation mat to
the base material in one process step. This perfect fastenting procedure replaces the very complicated
traditional procedure: weld on a pin, push the mat over the pin, put on the clip and then cut the projecting
tip or bend it.
The HBS process is so easy! Push the cupped head pin onto the chuck of the welding gun and push it
through the mat – weld within 3 milliseconds! Done.
