Abstract: An anchor bolt for use in a hole in a base material is provided and includes a stud, a sleeve disposed about the stud and a retainer nut, disposed in operable communication with the stud and having a dimension measured from a central axis of the hole that is at least as large as a corresponding dimension of the hole.

Abstract: A method for manufacturing an anchor bolt sleeve includes heat treating a steel blank, and cold working the steel blank into an anchor bolt sleeve subsequent to the heat treating, the anchor bolt sleeve being expandably receptive to a wedge of an anchor bolt.

Abstract: An adjustable wall hanger includes a body including an outer edge that defines a web. An adjustment feature is formed in the web. The adjustment feature includes a plurality of adjustment zones that define a corresponding plurality of orientation positions for the body. The adjustable wall hanger being selectively positionable to support an object on a wall in one of the plurality of orientation positions.

Abstract: A pin fastener includes a body having a first end that extends to a second end through an intermediate portion. The intermediate portion includes a first substantially constant diameter section that extends from the first end toward the second end, a first tapered section that extends from the first substantially constant diameter section, a second substantially constant diameter section that extends from the first tapered section, and a second tapered section that extends from the second substantially constant diameter portion to the second end. The pin fastener further includes a knurled section formed in the second substantially constant diameter portion.

Abstract: A wall anchor system includes an anchor member installable into a hollow wall. The anchor member includes a body having a first end that extends to a second end through an intermediate portion. The body includes an internal passage having a fastener retaining feature provided adjacent the first end. A fastener member is operatively engageable with the anchor member.

Abstract: A masonry anchor includes a head and a body integral to the head and extending therefrom. At least one helical male thread surrounds the body and includes a leading face substantially perpendicular to the body and a trailing face disposed between the leading face and the head. The trailing face intersects the leading face at a thread crest.

Abstract: A screw anchor includes a body having a head end that extends to a tip end through an intermediate portion defining an axis of the screw anchor, and a plurality of threads extending along the intermediate portion. Each of the plurality of threads includes a head side surface having a first angle relative to an axis perpendicular to the axis of the screw, and a tip side surface having a second angle relative to the axis perpendicular to the axis of the screw. The first angle is between about 30° and about 40°, and the second angle is between about 15° and about 25°.

Abstract: An anchor bolt for use in a hole in a base material is provided and includes a stud, a sleeve disposed about the stud and a retainer nut, disposed in operable communication with the stud and having a dimension measured from a central axis of the hole that is at least as large as a corresponding dimension of the hole.

Abstract: Disclosed is a valve assembly for a fluid dispenser including a valve body and a valve stem slidably located in the valve body. The valve stem has at least one exit hole located at a tip of the valve stem. A valve stem adapter is located at the tip of the valve stem and affixed thereto. The valve stem adapter includes at least one adapter exit hole to allow exit of a dispensible fluid from the valve assembly. Further disclosed is a dispenser for a fluid including a cannister, an inner bag for dispensible fluid located inside of the cannister, and a valve assembly including a valve stem adapter is located at a tip of a valve stem and affixed thereto. The valve stem adapter includes at least one adapter exit hole to allow exit of a dispensible fluid from the valve assembly.

Abstract: Discloses is an anchor bolt including a stud. The anchor bolt further includes a wedge in operable communication with the stud. The anchor bolt still further includes a heat treated then cold worked sleeve disposed about the stud and in operable communication with the wedge.

Abstract: An anchor stud includes a stud portion including a body portion having a first end that extends to a second end though an intermediate portion. A wedge member is operatively coupled to the second end of the stud portion. The wedge member includes a body having a generally frustoconical profile and is formed from a material having a Vickers hardness of between about 218 HV and about 290 HV. A sleeve element is positioned on the stud portion at the second end adjacent the wedge member. The sleeve element is formed from a material having a Vickers hardness of between about 218 HV and about 290 HV.

Abstract: Disclosed is an anchor bolt including a wedge having a surface with a plurality of protrusions and a sleeve in operable communication with the surface. Furthermore, the sleeve is expandably receptive to the surface.
