Global Manual Welding Studs Market Size, Share and Trends Analysis Report, By Type (Stainless Steel, Galvanized, and Others), By Application (Construction, Automotive, Machinery & Equipment, and Others), Forecast (2022-2028)

The manual welding studs market is anticipated to grow at a significant CAGR of 6.0% during the forecast period (2022-2028). Manual welding studs are a type of steel fastener that is used in construction. They are different from machine screws and bolts, as they often have an outside thread to increase their grip on mating parts such as aluminum extrusions. The manual process welding studs comprises of inserting the threaded end into one hole while turning it back and forth with a screwdriver until it gets inserted completely, then repeating for another hole. Manual weld studs can also be installed using special tools designed specifically for that purpose. The major factor driving the growth of the market is the increasing usage of manual welding studs for the development purposes in machinery and equipment. Stud welding is used in the construction sector to create buildings, bridges, and other structures. Strong welding is also required for underground systems, such as sewer pipes and other subsurface services, in order to make buildings and roadways safer.

The global manual welding studs market is segmented based on type and application. Based on type, the market is sub-segmented into stainless steel, galvanized, and others. Based on application, the market is sub-segmented into construction, automotive, machinery & equipment, and others. Among these segments, the construction segment is expected to propel the growth of the market as these welding studs are majorly used by this industry due to their superior strength . Additionally, manual welding studs are used for a number of reasons in the automobile sector. They are installed in cars, buses, trucks, and trains. Typically, these studs are welded into place to provide structural support or as connection points. They’re also employed in-car safety features like airbags and seat belts, which require them to connect metal pieces during deployment. Stud welding is also ideal for the complex attaching operations required for electrical components. Motors, communication devices, electrical homeware, and a wide range of electronic systems fall into this category. Fixing fascia panels, mounting printed circuit boards, fixing earthing studs, and mounting smaller things like switches and buttons may all be done with stud welder equipment. Also suited for hydraulic lines and electrical enclosures is drawn arc stud welding.

The market players are contributing significantly to the growth of the market by the adoption of various strategies including mergers & acquisitions, geographical expansion, partnerships and collaborations, and new product launches, to stay competitive in the market. For instance, in November 2021, Amsted Automotive Group’s Burgess-Norton Mfg. Co., Inc. unit announced that it has acquired SMW Manufacturing Co., an engineering and manufacturing firm for cold-formed and precision-machined components for the heavy truck, automotive, mining, construction, infrastructure, and industrial markets. The acquisition adds a broader range of cold-forming technology and engineering to Amsted Automotive Group’s advanced metal-forming, powder metallurgy, and electro-mechanical torque transfer and propulsion system design capabilities.
