Spot Welds 1

[aardvarkdw]

Where on a drawing do you attach the arrow head for a spot weld symbol? Any other weld you would attach it to an edge but with a spot weld there isn't an edge to attach to. If someone has an example that they can post I would appreciate it.

You can add a point.

Most automotive manufacturers in Europe show a cross (X) in the true position with an attached note regarding the standard required.

ajack,

You wouldn't by any chance have a drawing you could post would you?

I've also used an "X" to locate spot welds (the same symbol used to locate datum points).

Here is a useful link I've posted before regarding weld symbols. Check Fig 3-8

Never argue with an idiot. They'll bring you down to their level and beat you with experience every time.
