A bracket has: a plate having bolt holes and a utility pole mount; a clamp secured to the plate, the clamp comprising cooperating screw pile shaft receiving parts having laterally extending flanges, the flanges having fastener receiving openings for securing the clamp around a screw pile. A combination has: a bracket; a utility pole extended from a ground surface, in which the plate is bolted to the utility pole through the bolt holes in the plate; and a screw pile fastened to the clamp and penetrating the ground surface.

A threaded fastener pair, including: a first threaded fastener with a male threaded portion; and a second threaded fastener with a female threaded portion, the female portion being configured to receive the male threaded portion, wherein the first threaded fastener is formed with a shank having an outer diameter approximately equal to an outer diameter of the second threaded portion, the second threaded fastener has a length equal to or greater than that of the first threaded fastener and the length of the first threaded fastener is at least 45 mm.

A uniquely configured, hardened collar nut for use in the installation and retrofitting of light poles, and method of using same.

An apparatus for plumbing a transmission or distribution pole comprising: multiple pole brackets connected with an adjustable ratchet strap; multiple scissor jacks with each having a jack mount; at least one power drill or hand crank to adjust the scissor jack; whereby the pole can be efficiently adjusted into the proper plumb or leveled position.

In a preferred embodiment of the invention there is a post comprising a plurality of poles 5 located in and extending from a ground surface adjacent to one another. A sleeve 1 is arranged around the poles 5 so that the sleeve and poles combine to provide a shaft. In this embodiment each pole has a tapered ground-engaging end 6 and the sleeve has a large compartment 2 for two of the poles 5 and a small compartment 3 for one of the poles.

In one embodiment of the present disclosure, an attachment assembly for coupling to a base plate includes a substantially planar attachment plate having a top side and a bottom side, a magnet assembly including at least three magnets, each of the at least three magnets having a first side and a second side opposite the first side, the first sides of the at least three magnets are configured for coupling with the bottom side of the attachment plate, wherein the at least three magnets each have a first end and a second end, such that the first end of each magnet is adjacent a second end of an adjacent magnet to form an array, and a shim plate removably coupled to the second side of the at least three magnets.

A post base device and system is provided. The post base device includes a first support base, a second support base, and one or more post brackets. The post brackets may include legs which attach to one of the first support base or the second support base. The post bracket may further include an opening which receives a post.

The present disclosure provides a molded screw preferably comprised of a sleeve portion to receive a pole, the sleeve portion connected to a conical shank terminating at a tip. The shank is in turn further comprised of at least one thread, the thread to facilitate drilling of the screw into the ground. The thread is further comprised of recessed portions that receive earth or dirt or other substances during the drilling process and stabilize the screw when it is set in the ground. In another embodiment, the shank is further comprised of a high and low thread, which spiral in alternating fashion to the tip of the screw.

A post sleeve including a first mounting plate including a first mounting hole. The post sleeve also can include a second mounting plate including a second mounting hole, The post sleeve additionally can include a channel portion extending between the first mounting plate and the second mounting plate. The channel portion can include a channel configured to secure a post within the channel. The first and second mounting plates can be configured to be attached to an anchor channel of an edge angle. Other embodiments are described.

According to an embodiment of the invention, there is provided an adjustable footing for a post, the adjustable footing comprising: a base, the base comprising a base plate, a fixed base nut secured to the base plate and a threaded rod secured to the base nut and extending perpendicular to the base; and a top, the top comprising a post plate having a hole and a fixed post nut secured to the post plate over the hole and dimensioned to engage the threaded rod. The post plate is secured to the post such that the threaded rod passes through the post nut and hole into a cavity in the post, and the overall height of the footing is adjustable by rotation of the base via the base nut.
