How Studs Are Measured
Studs are sold by their effective length. You'd expect that to be how far the stud sticks out past your track. That's a fair assumption. Here's where it actually starts.
At the top of a 1/4" backer, and that backer sits on top of your track. So the stud reaches 1/4" higher than the number looks.
On paper it looks like 1/8". You're actually getting about 3/8" past your lugs.
Cobra track? Cobra lug heights include about 0.10" of nubs on top. Those don't count. A 1.352" Cobra is really a 1.25" lug. A 1.6" Cobra is really a 1.50" lug.
| Lug Height | Stud Size effective | Overall length | Penetration |
|---|---|---|---|
| 0.82" | 1.000" | 1.375" | ~3/8" |
| 0.88" | 1.000" | 1.375" | ~3/8" |
| 0.91" | 1.075" | 1.425" | ~3/8" |
| 1.00" | 1.175" | 1.525" | ~3/8" |
| 1.25" | 1.375" | 1.725" | ~3/8" |
| 1.352" Cobra 1.25" actual | 1.375" | 1.725" | ~3/8" |
| 1.375" | 1.500" | 1.850" | ~3/8" |
| 1.50" | 1.625" | 1.950" | ~3/8" |
| 1.6" Cobra 1.50" actual | 1.625" | 1.950" | ~3/8" |
