Dowel Anchor – DA-46

The DA-46 is a masonry dowel anchor used to tie a stone or masonry veneer back to its structural backup. The dowel engages a hole drilled into the edge or bed of the stone, while the body of the anchor secures to the backup wall, creating a positive mechanical connection that holds the veneer unit in position and transfers load back to the structure.

Like other anchors in our dowel series, the DA-46 is designed for anchoring dimension stone, stone veneer, and masonry panels to backup walls on commercial facade and cladding assemblies. It is fabricated to suit the specific substrate and veneer thickness it serves, so the right finish and gauge can be matched to the exposure and loading of your project.
