Deformed Bar Anchor

Deformed Bar Anchor

Deformed Bar Anchor (DBA) studs are used for weld and bearing plates in concrete connections.

Similar to a weld stud, a deformed bar anchor is a fastener used for anchoring in concrete. The anchors are attached to steel via a drawn arc welding method. Unlike a weld stud, deformed bar anchors do not have a head and the bodies of the anchors are dimpled, similar to rebar. One end of the anchor has a flux ball for the arc welding process.

TSA manufacturers and stocks a variety of deformed bar anchors, also known as DBA’s. Custom lengths and sizes are also available with short lead times to manufacture.
