A wing nut includes a body having a sidewall that surrounds a central opening. The central opening is threaded along a threaded portion having a threaded length extending from the back end towards the front end of the body. At least two wings are integrated with the sidewall and extend away from the sidewall in a radial direction relative to the centerline. A rib extend peripherally around the sidewall in a radially outward direction such that a wall thickness of the sidewall increases to a maximum value moving along the centerline away from the rear end, and decreases along the centerline moving towards the front end from the maximum value.

A quick-release cymbal locking device to be mounted to a stand rod includes a first locking member and a second locking member. The first locking member has an upper nut portion and a lower nut portion. A receiving space is defined between the upper and lower nut portions. The upper and lower nut portions each have a first through hole with a diameter greater than that of the stand rod. The first through hole includes a first threaded portion and a first smooth portion. The second locking member has a head portion and a handle portion. The head portion is inserted into the receiving space and has a second through hole with a diameter greater than that of the stand rod. The second through hole includes a second threaded portion and a second smooth portion.

A tube clamp socket, including a socket body, including a cylindrical surface, a first slot disposed on at least a portion of the cylindrical surface to receive a first portion of at least one fastener therein, a second slot disposed on at least a portion of the cylindrical surface to receive a second portion of the at least one fastener therein, and a fastener receiving aperture may be disposed within at least a portion of an interior of the cylindrical surface to receive a center portion of the at least one fastener therein, and an attachment body removably connected to the cylindrical surface to contact the first portion and the second portion of the at least one fastener to prevent the first portion and the second portion of the at least one fastener from moving away from the first slot and the second slot.

A fastener assembly including a fastener body having a collar and a receiving column with a protrusion on an inner surface thereof, and a pin having a threaded section. The protrusion is configured to engage and cooperate with the threaded section.

A method of transporting liquid petroleum gas (LPG) comprising coupling reverse thread fittings of a first tank to reverse thread fittings of a second tank, the first tank storing the LPG; and allowing the LPG to flow from the first tank to the second tank through the reverse thread fittings of the first tank and the reverse thread fittings of the second tank.

A nut for joining conduits includes a body having a generally cylindrical shape and defining a central opening. A plurality of lugs can extend outwardly from an outer surface of the body and provide one or more strike surfaces. The central opening can include a threaded portion proximate a first end of the nut and a tapered portion extending from the threaded portion. The tapered portion defines a frustoconical surface that expands the central opening beyond the threaded portion. The tapered portion may terminate at an undercut or flange proximate the second end of the nut.

Provided is a super wing nut bolt. The super wing bolt comprises a head, two wings that extend transversely from opposite sides of the head, a polygonal-sided shall that extends downward from the head and a threaded shaft that extends downward from the polygonal sided shaft. The bolt may also include a tightening hole that passes perpendicular through the head between the two wings, a tightening slot in a first top surface of the head,
