Stud Welding Kits & Bundles – Complete Solutions from Taylor Studwelding
At Taylor Studwelding, we make it simple to get everything you need for professional stud welding in one convenient package. Our stud welding kits (also known as stud welding bundles) are designed to match the compatible power unit, handtool, cables, and accessories so you can get started quickly with the right equipment for your application.
Whether you need Capacitor Discharge (CD) stud welding or Drawn Arc (DA) stud welding, each kit includes:
-
Stud welding power unit – the control system that determines the range and performance
-
Stud welding gun (handtool) – matched to the unit for optimal weld quality
-
Twin earth cable – for secure earthing and safety
-
Chucks / Ferrule grips – chosen to suit the stud diameters supported by the unit/ handtool
By purchasing a kit, you save time and ensure compatibility between components – no guesswork required.
How to Choose the Right Stud Welding Kit
When selecting a kit, consider:
-
Welding Process – Capacitor Discharge (CD) for thinner materials and fast welds, or Drawn Arc (DA) for structural, heavy-duty applications.
-
Stud Diameters – Each kit comes with the correct chucks or ferrule grips for specific stud sizes.
-
Handtool Type – Different stud guns are optimised for different stud types and diameters.
-
Future Flexibility – Choose a kit that allows for the stud diameters you plan to work with most often.
If you’re unsure which stud welding bundle is right for your project, our experts at Taylor Studwelding are here to help.
Capacitor Discharge (CD) Stud Welding Kits
Capacitor Discharge kits are ideal for sheet metal fabrication, signage, electrical enclosures, HVAC, and automotive applications. They are fast, precise, and leave minimal marking on the reverse side of the material.
Each CD kit includes:
-
Chucks for supported stud sizes
Available CD Kits & Applications:
Capacitor Discharge units are available as follows, with chucks matched according to the size of the control unit.
Drawn Arc (DA) Stud Welding Kits
Drawn Arc kits are designed for structural steel, shipbuilding, construction, and heavy fabrication industries. This process provides high-strength welds for larger diameter studs.
Each DA kit includes:
Available DA Kits & Applications
With the drawn arc kits, the handtool determines the consumables required to match the bundle, rather than the control unit. Our suggested drawn arc equipment kits are as follows:
