What is the difference between welding nuts and ordinary nuts?

Welding nuts are suitable for situations where they need to be welded to another workpiece, which can simplify the structure and improve the bearing capacity of the workpiece. For example, in projects such as water tanks, equipment housings, bridges, etc., nuts need to be fixed to the workpiece for installation and removal, and can withstand greater pressure.

Ordinary nuts are suitable for situations where they need to be removed, adjusted, installed or tightened. For example, in the fields of automobiles, machinery and equipment, furniture, construction, etc., ordinary nuts are indispensable fasteners, and common ones are hexagonal nuts, round head nuts, nylon nuts, etc.

The bottom of the nut is tightly connected to the workpiece by welding, usually by spot welding or submerged arc welding, with high welding strength and light weight. The structure is simple and there are no additional parts, so the price is relatively low.

Ordinary nuts are composed of several parts such as threads, nut heads, and bolts. The shapes of nut heads are different, including hexagonal, round heads, square heads, etc. There are also many choices of materials such as steel, stainless steel, and brass, and the price varies accordingly.

The manufacturing process of welding nuts is relatively simple, and you only need to weld the bottom to the workpiece. The key to welding quality lies in the control of welding process and welding temperature to ensure the strength of the welding point.

The manufacturing process of ordinary nuts is more complicated, and it is necessary to perform turning, milling, cutting and other work on the machine to ensure the accuracy and rust resistance of the nut head, bolt and thread.

In summary, the difference between welding nuts and ordinary nuts lies in the use, structure and manufacturing process. For different needs, choosing appropriate nuts can better meet the needs, and at the same time improve work efficiency and safety.
