| 411487000 | Shank or penetrating end structure | 12 |
| 20090155021 | DEFORMED SHANK FASTENER - A nail has a head, a penetrating tip and a shank extending from the head to the penetrating tip. The shank has a circumference and a longitudinal axis. A plurality of rows of deformations formed as teeth are formed in the shank extending outwardly of the shank. The rows are formed in a spiral pattern along the length of the shank from about the head to about the penetrating tip. The rows of teeth are formed parallel to one another and formed at an angle of at least 50 degrees relative to a cross-sectional plane perpendicular to a longitudinal axis of the nail. | 06-18-2009 |
| 20120219382 | FASTENING PIN AND MANUFACTURING METHOD THEREOF - A fastening pin has an enlarged head part, and a shaft part. The shaft part includes a large diameter section formed below the enlarged head part, a middle shaft section formed below the large diameter section, and a small diameter section extending from the middle shaft section to a leading end of the fastening pin. The large diameter section includes a round portion formed below the enlarged head part and a taper portion formed between the round portion and the middle shaft section. A diameter of the large diameter section at a side of the enlarged head part is larger than a diameter of the large diameter section at a side of the middle shaft section. The middle shaft section has a uniform diameter from a side of the large diameter section to a side of the small diameter section. | 08-30-2012 |
| 20140199134 | STA-PUT / HURRICANE NAIL - The Sta-Put/Hurricane nail has longitudinal anchoring feature located at the driving point of the nail and/or along the shaft. The longitudinal anchor barbs (hook like barb) actively engage the wood (substrate) material when driven through to provide a superior mechanical bond between two or more pieces of wood material than conventional nails. The notched longitudinal anchor barb actively engages the wood (substrate) when force is applied in opposite direction of that of the driven direction. The barbs provide and maintain superior fastening properties during sustained high velocity windstorms (hurricane, tornadoes, etc.) and effectively resist the “popping out” effect of conventional nails due to weathering and aging. The “popping out” effect is when the nail fails and begins to extract itself, thus weakening and subsequently failing. | 07-17-2014 |
| 411488000 | Flat-sided shank | 1 |
| 411489000 | Tapered | 1 |
| 20080273944 | Affixing pin for dry wall or the like - A dry wall affixing pin, having a penetrating pin which has a penetrating tip for penetrating through a dry wall, a controlling tail coupling with the penetrating tip for determining a penetrating direction of the penetrating pin, and a force distributing surface which extends from the penetrating tip towards the controlling tail. The dry wall affixing pin also has a pusher head coupling with the controlling tail which has a grip handle and a flat pushing surface disposed at an end thereof for user to conveniently push the affixing pin into the dry wall. The force distributing surface further has a flat and peripheral surface for minimizing a contact force against materials from the dry wall while penetrating through. | 11-06-2008 |
| 411490000 | Stepped shank | 1 |
| 20090290957 | Fastener - A fastener has a rod body that has a proximal end, a distal end, a head and an engaging segment. The head is formed on the proximal end. The engaging segment is formed between the proximal end and the distal end and has multiple teeth formed around the engaging segment. The rod body has a diameter gradually decreasing from the proximal end to the distal end. Accordingly, the fastener is convenient in combining two boards without using any tool. | 11-26-2009 |
| 411491000 | Oval or lobular shank | 1 |
| 20150071734 | self-wedging concrete nail - A concrete fastener with ribs attached to the body that, when driven into a pre-drilled hole, the ribs collapse due to the friction between the concrete/CMU and the fastener ribs creating a temporary or permanent attachment between the objects. | 03-12-2015 |
| 411492000 | Angular shank portion | 1 |
| 20100021266 | Directional fastener - A fastener self-directed to change form and direction in order to conform to a desired fastening trajectory. | 01-28-2010 |
| 411493000 | End structure | 5 |
| 20110188971 | KNURLED PIN FASTENER AND METHOD OF FORMING A KNURLED PIN FASTENER - 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. | 08-04-2011 |
| 20140161561 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR DRIVING A FASTENER - A system and method for positioning a tool. The system includes a base member configured to contact a first decking member and a second decking member; at least one base guide including a first end and an opposing second end, the first end coupled to the base member, the at least one base guide configured to position the base member relative to the first decking member and the second decking member; and an adjustable section coupled to the base member, the adjustable section configured to allow adjustment of at least one of a position and an angle of the tool relative to the base member. The system further includes a fastener configured to secure the first and/or second decking members to a joist. | 06-12-2014 |
| 20150023763 | ARROW TIP NAIL - An “arrow tip nail” is an impact driven building nail for all sizes, lengths and types of constructing or other building-nail applications, distinctly designed with a triangular arrow shaped tip at the end structure, with lateral protusions on each side where the shank meets the beginning of the design, including a sharp penetrating point at the tip, all for the function of improved piercing and/or structural penetrating ability, as well as increased retention ability, so as to make it easier to go into a structure and harder to withdraw from it by human or natural forces over short or longer periods of time. | 01-22-2015 |
| 411495000 | Slotted end | 1 |
| 20080298927 | POSITIONING PIN - A positioning pin ( | 12-04-2008 |
| 411496000 | Chisel point | 1 |
| 20090016849 | Landscape retaining stake - A stake for securing stones, pavers, bricks and other landscape units comprises an elongate body having an upper end including an anvil surface and an abutment, a chisel shaped lower end, a front face, and a rear face that is inclined rearwardly relative to the front face of the body from the lower end of the body to the upper end of the body to form a wedge. When the stake is aligned with a stone and is driven into the ground, it pivots underneath the stone, and the abutment engages a lower edge of the stone to restrain shifting of the stone laterally and sinking of the stone vertically. | 01-15-2009 |
