Weld fuses whatever Yosetsu Awase is touching, joining living tissue and dead matter alike at the subatomic level. It is less a weapon than a set of handcuffs, letting him pin an opponent to the nearest wall without hurting them, and he can undo the bond whenever he likes.
This Emitter Quirk belongs to Yosetsu Awase of Class 1-B and demands direct contact to function, debuting in Chapter 81 and Episode 44. Its effect ignores the usual distinction between organic and inorganic, treating flesh and steel as equally fusible.
Anything Yosetsu is touching when he triggers the power bonds together on a subatomic level and stays physically joined. He is not excluded from this, so he can attach himself to an object or to another person, and nothing about the process is permanent, since he can undo any bond he creates. The one hard requirement is contact with at least two separate things; touching a single object accomplishes nothing.
His hero costume is built around extending that reach. He carries small steel logs that act as bridges, letting him fuse one end to one target and the other end to a second, which spares him from having to lay hands on both simultaneously. He also keeps a set of shields that he welds onto himself, converting them into makeshift armor. The same trick works for rescue: bonding parts of his own body to an injured person makes carrying someone who cannot move considerably easier.
His named technique, Construction-Done-Kwik: Weldcraft, chains an opponent to a nearby structure in one rapid motion using those metal logs. He deployed it against Katsuki Bakugo in the Joint Training Battle, where Rikido Sato broke the hold using Sugar Rush, his own Ultimate Move.

Naruto vs Luffy with the twist nobody asked for: Luffy tickled Hinata on date night, and she kind of liked it. We break down the whole fight and commit to a winner....

There are no women on Namek. That isn't an oversight, it's the biology. Why we handed Piccolo the one thing his own species rules out, and why it had to be trap soul....
Weld lets Yosetsu Awase fuse whatever he is touching together at a subatomic level, joining living tissue and solid objects alike, and he can release the bond whenever he chooses.
Yosetsu Awase, a Class 1-B student at U.A. High, is the only known user of the Weld Quirk.
His technique, Construction-Done-Kwik: Weldcraft, uses steel logs from his hero costume to chain an opponent to a nearby structure in one rapid motion.
Yosetsu Awase can bond parts of his own body to an injured person, making it much easier to carry someone who is unable to move.
Weld only works if Yosetsu Awase is touching at least two separate things at once, since touching a single object does nothing.
