A fastener assembly which allows relatively heavy objects to be attached to either a hollow or a solid core wall by distributing the weight of such objects along a relatively long axial plane of support defined by an elongated cantilever structure. The apparatus includes an elongated tubular body having a flange or face plate at its proximal end. The tubular body defines an axial cavity dimensioned to receive a correspondingly dimensioned support member. When inserted into a properly dimensioned hole formed in a suitable support structure such, for example as a wall, ceiling, or floor, the rear face of the face plate contacts the portion of the support structure surface which surrounds the hole. The elongated tubular body, as well as the support member received therein, is maintained in position by an anchoring member which is disposed proximate the distal end of the tubular body. The anchor member comprises a base portion defining a central, threaded aperture. A plurality of elongated wings extend from the base portion in a direction toward the face plate of the tubular body. The wings are bendable in the direction of the tubular body to allow the anchoring member to be inserted through the wall hole. A threaded member inserted through the elongated body into the threaded aperture of the anchoring member is rotated to draw the wings of the anchoring member into contact with the inside surface of the wall panel.
