Nelson R1P and R1L studs are used for a variety of purposes. Frequently, they are used as stops, standoffs, or tabs for locating or positioning parts in assemblies. They are also used as refractory anchors to increase the surface area of furnaces or molds, where they act as cooling fins. The smaller, 1/8 x 1/4", 1/8 x 3/8”, and 1/8 x 5/8” weld base rectangular studs, have a sufficiently small weld base so as to not require a flux load in the weld end of the stud. For this reason, these are called R1P studs. The 3/16” and thicker rectangular weld base studs are flux loaded due to the increased volume of steel melted during the weld process. These studs are called R1L studs.
