IKING headed shear connector studs, also known as Nelson shear studs, comply with ISO13918 and GB/T10433 standards. Widely applied in steel‑concrete composite beams for bridges and high‑rise buildings. Good welding performance, stable shear transfer capacity, reliable connection for steel‑concrete composite structures.
IKING headed shear connector studs, commonly referred to as Nelson shear studs, are critical welding fasteners designed for steel‑concrete composite structural systems. Manufactured in strict accordance with ISO 13918 and GB/T 10433 industry standards, these headed shear studs serve as mechanical connectors to transfer shear force between steel beams and concrete slabs.
Made of high‑quality carbon steel material, our shear studs feature an integrated round head and smooth shank structure. During stud welding installation, the base of the stud fuses firmly onto the surface of steel beam flanges. After concrete pouring, the round head embeds inside concrete, effectively resisting relative slippage between steel members and concrete layers. This greatly improves the overall bearing capacity, rigidity and stability of composite beams.
Our shear connector studs undergo strict dimensional inspection and material performance testing. Consistent mechanical properties guarantee long‑term load‑bearing performance under static and dynamic working conditions. Suitable for automatic stud welding guns, they deliver stable welding results and high on‑site construction efficiency for large‑scale engineering projects.

IKING headed shear connector studs are widely adopted in steel‑concrete composite construction scenarios:
1. Composite steel beams for high‑rise commercial buildings, office towers and industrial workshops. They connect steel beam and concrete floor slabs to form composite floor systems.
2. Highway bridges, railway bridges and viaduct structures. Shear studs bear cyclic shear load for bridge composite decks.
3. Parking garages, large‑span exhibition halls, stadiums and public venues with large span composite structures.
4. Off‑shore platform auxiliary structures and other steel‑concrete composite infrastructure projects.
These studs eliminate horizontal slip between steel and concrete, reduce beam height requirement, save steel consumption and optimize overall project cost.

Q1: What welding equipment is required to install headed shear connector studs?
A: Drawn arc stud welding machine and matching stud welding gun are required. Corresponding ceramic ferrule should be used together during welding operation.
Q2: Can you produce non‑standard size shear studs?
A: Yes. Please send us your technical drawings, dimension parameters and quantity demand, we will evaluate and provide quotation accordingly.
Q3: What is your typical lead‑time for bulk orders?
A: For standard size shear studs, production lead‑time is around 15‑25 working days, subject to final order quantity.
Q4: Do you provide material test reports?
A: Yes. Material test certificates will be supplied together with your shipment.
Q5: Are these studs suitable for outdoor bridge projects?
A: The base carbon‑steel product is black finish. If you use it for long‑term outdoor exposure environment, further anti‑corrosion treatment can be discussed.
