What a remarkable bolt! Can it come and do my place when it's finished?
Ah, the old... lemmy switcharoo?
I have a new thing that I miss most :(
Hold my torque wrench I'm going in.

It's not that kind of bolt. It's a special bolt.
My first thought - aww, what a clever little bolt, and cute to boot!
ive seen these used sticking out of concrete, the bend acting as the anchor... then the wood is bolted to this.
J Bolts for concrete don't have a head on them. The bent part is embedded into the concrete and would never be turned. Forming a hex head would be a wasted extra production cost.
At my old job we had some of these on the wall for hanging our hardhats.
Ugh, happens to me all the time when I get overconfident trying to hammer in bolts.
I read they’re doing a recall on the left bend one. The right bends are okay tho.
I've had to help someone tighten a bolt like this before. It was used to attach the deck assembly to the underside of a riding lawnmower.

That is one of those right angle bolts for getting into tight places. Hang onto it because they cost about $15 each new. It is specially made to transfer the torque from the head around the 90 degree bend. Just line it up with the nut, slap a driver on there and go to town. I promise, it will be amazing and nothing bad will happen.
Could’ve been a makeshift hook. Or a lock pin/bolt (literally) for one of those simple gate latches.
These bolts are like this from the factory - I have 4 on my honey extractor, they are used for other situations where you need to bolt one thing perpendicular to each other.
Very strange, but looks prebent
get yourself an acyzelen torch and then you can get your very own prebent 90° bolt for thoose tight spaces
someone decided to be funny a couple years ago. we will never know who, but i do suspect your dad.
Could be similar to DIN875 or DIN878, depending on who you ask https://www.scribd.com/document/81939727/Sonderschrauben-fur-den-Maschinenbau
das nenn ich mal vielseitig einsetzbare schrauben
Could be useful as an allen 🤔
This is the most likely reason. I made a few of these when a regular Allen/Hex key is needed in a larger size than what you have on hand.
That there is a doodad, not to be confused with a thingamajig.
Looks like a wallhook to me.
I think you can buy similar screws here lol
