Abstract:
A saddle hanger formed from a trapezoidal blank alternately cut from flat sheet metal stock with two cut lines separating the front panel from the side and top saddle portions and adapted to be creased along at least four fold lines at the junctures of: the front panel and stirrup seat; the stirrup seat and stirrup sides; the stirrup sides and side saddle portions; and, the side saddle and top saddle portions so that when the blank is bent along the fold lines the stirrup seat and sides project perpendicular to the front panel and to each other and the side saddle portions overlie and reinforce portions of the front panel. Additionally, the top of the front panel may be bent back beneath the top saddle portions and the latter may terminate in folded down tabs. The side and top saddle portions may include pre-punched holes which register with similar holes in the front and top panel portions.
