Nelson ® Stud Welding, the leader in weld<br />
studs and stud welding systems, introduces<br />
its latest innovation in concrete anchorage and<br />
reinforcement; the patent - pending D6L deformed<br />
bar stud anchor A706. It is a fully stud-weldable<br />
concrete anchor without the need for pre-heat or<br />
specialized welding equipment and accessories.<br />
The D61 A706 meets all the requirements of:<br />
• ASTM A706 - Standard Specification for<br />
Deformed and Plain Low-Alloy Bars for<br />
Concrete Reinforcement -Grade 60 deformed<br />
concrete reinforcement<br />
• ACI 318 - Earthquake-Resistant Structures<br />
• Seismic Design Requirements for Ductile<br />
Steel Reinforcing Elements<br />
• Stud-weldable in accordance with the<br />
requirements AWS Dl .1 / Dl .1 M Structural<br />
Welding Code - Steel Clause 7 Stud Welding<br />
Some applications where the D6L A706<br />
weld stud are useful include: Precast concrete<br />
grade crossings, seismic management, concrete<br />
connections where ductility is key, bridge &<br />
building construction. The product is available in<br />
straight, bent and threaded variations.<br />
Most importantly, the new D6L A706 results<br />
in labor cost savings! Hand-welding rebar takes<br />
an average of 2-3 minutes, often requiring a<br />
certified welder along with pre-heat operation.<br />
Most contractors can stud weld Nelson’s new<br />
A706 product at a rate of 4 per minute throughout<br />
the day, saving both time and money!<br />

Company, is the leading global manufacturer and<br />
distributor of weld stud fasteners and application<br />
equipment serving a broad range of markets<br />
