Abstract

A resilient, axially slotted sleeve in the form of a split collar is removably mounted on the trailing threaded end portion of a fastener to be driven into hard material such as steel or concrete. The sleeve preferably includes compressible peripheral projections for temporarily retaining the fastener when loaded in the muzzle of a driving tool. Having aided in guiding the fastener during driving and protected its threads from deformation and/or clogging, the sleeve is thereafter strippable conveniently by radial peeling movement from the driven fastener to enable a nut or other threaded element to be secured thereto.
