To provide a drawing-out tool for sheet metal which is less in failure and excellent in the durability and has excellent handling property by evading generation of trouble in an electric system by shielding dust, metal dust, soil dust or the like from mingling in or attaching to the electric system. The drawing-out tool for sheet metal comprises a center shaft (22); a first operation means (20) provided with a bit (25) arranged to an apex part of the center shaft; a second operation means (30) for pulling-up the first operation means; and an energization mechanism (100) for supplying electric current to the bit are provided. The housing (10) for accommodating the illumination unit (70) and the illumination unit for illuminating a sheet metal surface accommodated in the housing are included.

Provided is a copper alloy fastener element which improves season cracking resistance by a means different from that of increasing a ratio of a phase. The copper alloy fastener element includes a copper-zinc alloy as a base material, the base material having: an apparent zinc content of from 34 to 38%; a dendrite structure; and a phase at a ratio of 10% or less.

A mounting bracket for supporting an electrical device includes a frame, a leg, and a support tab. The frame includes a rail and is configured to be secured to a structural support. The leg is connected to an edge of the rail and pivotable relative to the rail. The support tab is connected to the leg and configured to be coupled to the structural support.

An assembly unit has an assembly part with an assembly side and an opposite outer side. A through opening extends from the outer side to the assembly side. A screw has a head that juts radially over the through opening on the outer side and a shank which reaches through the through opening with radial clearance. The screw has a threaded portion and a non-threaded portion disposed between the threaded portion and the head. A holder fixes the screw captively in the through opening. The holder is held axially movably in the through opening and axially movably on the non-threaded shank portion of the screw. The holder has a disk-shaped flange with a flange opening reached through by the non-threaded shank of the screw.

A hanger for connecting a structural member to a structural support including a base sized and shaped for receiving the structural member thereon. First and second side panels extend upward from the base. First and second back panels each extend from a respective one of the side panels. First and second top flanges each extend from a respective one of the back panels. An opening in one of said first and second side panels and said first and second back panels is configured to receive a fastener to attach the hanger to one of the structural member and the structural support. A slot is adjacent the opening. An area between the opening and the slot defines a yieldable portion selected to deform at a load that is less than the shear load capacity of the fastener when received through the opening for connecting the hanger to one of the structural member and the structural support.
