Anticorp,

That there is a doodad, not to be confused with a thingamajig.

jasondj,

Could’ve been a makeshift hook. Or a lock pin/bolt (literally) for one of those simple gate latches.

I read they’re doing a recall on the left bend one. The right bends are okay tho.

A_Menace_To_Society,

These bolts are like this from the factory - I have 4 on my honey extractor, they are used for other situations where you need to bolt one thing perpendicular to each other.

Annoyed_Crabby,

Could be useful as an allen 🤔

This is the most likely reason. I made a few of these when a regular Allen/Hex key is needed in a larger size than what you have on hand.

Technikus5,

Could be similar to DIN875 or DIN878, depending on who you ask scribd.com/…/Sonderschrauben-fur-den-Maschinenbau

KpntAutismus,

someone decided to be funny a couple years ago. we will never know who, but i do suspect your dad.

Thisfox,

Looks like a wallhook to me.

fylkenny,

I think you can buy similar screws here lol

first_must_burn,

That is one of those right angle bolts for getting into tight places. Hang onto it because they cost about $15 each new. It is specially made to transfer the torque from the head around the 90 degree bend. Just line it up with the nut, slap a driver on there and go to town. I promise, it will be amazing and nothing bad will happen.

thefartographer,

Ugh, happens to me all the time when I get overconfident trying to hammer in bolts.

vettnerk,

At my old job we had some of these on the wall for hanging our hardhats.

Very strange, but looks prebent

nogrub,

get yourself an acyzelen torch and then you can get your very own prebent 90° bolt for thoose tight spaces

3arn0wl,

What a remarkable bolt! Can it come and do my place when it’s finished?

ComradeBunnie,
@ComradeBunnie@aussie.zone avatar

My first thought - aww, what a clever little bolt, and cute to boot!
