Abstract: A wall anchor is provided and includes a wing manually urgeable through a substrate, a cutting element attached to the wing at a leading side thereof to cut through substrate material upon the manual urging, a strap assembly rotatably coupled to the wing and configured to be manually gripped and to have a pulling force exerted thereon to thereby urge the wing against the substrate and a cap disposed to be movable along the strap assembly, respective engagements of a member with the wing and the cap being sufficient to draw the wing and the cap toward one another.

Abstract: A wall anchor is provided and includes a nose cone structure including a body and a primary cone, which is rotatably coupled to the body and manually urgeable to penetrate a substrate, a detent assembly, disposed on the nose cone structure, which is engageable to maintain the primary cone in a first position and a trigger integrally coupled to the nose cone structure and actuatable to selectively disengage the detent assembly such that the primary cone is permissively rotatable about the body into a second position.

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 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 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: 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: 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 setting tool arrangement includes a stock of a setting tool having one or more sleeve stops; a barrel of a setting tool slidably receivable in the stock; and a sleeve interactive with the barrel to move to a position allowing the barrel to move when pointed in a direction opposite the direction of gravity and to a position of interference with the one or more sleeve stops thus preventing the barrel from moving when pointed in a direction approximating the direction of gravity.

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 and a trailing face substantially perpendicular to the body disposed between the leading face and the head. The trailing face intersects the leading face at a thread crest.

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: A carrier strip system includes a plurality of discrete carrier strips respectively receptive of fasteners of substantially different dimensions the strips having internal features configured to engage the fasteners, the strips further having substantially identical external dimensions said external dimensions being substantially symmetrical with respect to a virtual surface defined by inclusion of axes of the plurality of discrete fasteners, and the external dimensions being engagable with a single setting tool magazine such that fasteners with different dimensions have consistent alignment within a single setting tool magazine and method.
