ABSTRACT:
A downspout anchor formed of a U-shaped hook section and a spike section permanently joined by an angular arm unitary with the spike section. A collar formation having a through bore therethrough is formed on the angular arm for receiving the hook section, the collar being compressed with the hook section staked therein, effecting the permanent securement. The spike section is provided with opposite ends, one end being rounded for receiving impacts thereto and the opposite end is provided with a bit end, preferably a four-sided tapered portion. The angular arm is formed by forging of a portion of the spike with the angular arm, including the collar formation formed in a cavity of an upset-forging die. The hook section and the spike section are coplanar and laterally offset. The spike section is driven into the building wall without damage to the downspout being mounted.
