    Abstract: A reusable hanger that inserts and removes from a mounting surface without tools comprising a metal shank having a point on one end and a hook on the other, with a specially formed detent medially located between the point and the hook, and a flange that encases the detent and fixates to the shank. The detent provides improved adhesion between the flange and the shank, while further providing a sheer point along the shank, thereby reducing damage to the supporting surface if a user overloads the hook. The flange serves several purposes, it is the finger push location for the user to install the hanger without tools by pushing and/or twisting the flange such that the point pierces the support surface and inserts until the flange stops flush against the support surface. Once flush, the flange provides compressive support structure between the support surface and the shank, thereby increasing loading capacities of the hook.
