ABSTRACT:
A wheel strap snap hanger of the invention includes an elongated tubular shank having a rearward flange on one end and a plurality of flexible fingers extending longitudinally rearwardly therefrom. Each finger includes a stem portion connecting the rearward flange to a head portion of greater diameter than the stem portion and spaced from the rearward flange to define a peripheral plate member receiving groove for positive snap fit retention of the snap hanger onto the edge of a hole through a plate member. The flexible fingers are separated by axial slots which extend forwardly through the rearward flange and into the shank. An outer portion of the rearward surface of the rearward flange is inclined outwardly and forwardly to prevent rearward bending of the flange during insertion of the snap hanger. A removable hollow plug insert is alternately adapted for use as a tool for removing the plug insert from a plate member on which it is installed.
