The main body extends in a rod shape and includes a head portion, a body portion and a radial flange located between the head portion and the body portion, the body portion has an outer threaded segment, and the radial flange has a non-circular cross-sectional profile. The sleeve member includes a first portion and a second portion, the first portion is coveringly disposed on an outer surface of the head portion, and the second portion is coveringly disposed on an outer surface of the radial flange and has a circular cross-sectional profile. ## Claims ### Claim 1 A wall anchor, including: a main body, extending in a rod shape, including a head portion, a body portion and a radial flange located between the head portion and the body portion, the body portion having an outer threaded segment, the radial flange having a non-circular cross-sectional profile; and a sleeve member, including a first portion and a second portion, the first portion coveringly disposed on an outer surface of the head portion, the second portion coveringly disposed on an outer surface of the radial flange and having a circular cross-sectional profile. ### Claim 2 (depends on 1) The wall anchor of claim 1, wherein the radial flange includes an upper surface close to the head portion and a lower surface opposite to the upper surface, the second portion includes a first annular surface facing the upper surface and a second annular surface facing the lower surface, and a thickness of the second annular surface is greater than a thickness of the first annular surface. ### Claim 3 (depends on 1) The wall anchor of claim 1, wherein the radial flange includes at least one flat surface and at least one arcuate surface, the second portion includes a circumferential wall coveringly disposed on the at least one flat surface and the at least one arcuate surface, as viewed in an axial direction of the main body, a portion of the circumferential wall facing the at least one flat surface has a first thickness, and a portion of the circumferential wall facing the at least one arcuate surface has a second thickness smaller than the first thickness. ### Claim 4 (depends on 3) The wall anchor of claim 3, wherein the first thickness is at least 3 times of the second thickness. ### Claim 5 (depends on 1) The wall anchor of claim 1, wherein the body portion further includes a first segment, a second segment and a third segment which are sequentially arranged between the radial flange and the outer threaded segment, a diametrical dimension of the first segment is greater than a diametrical dimension of the second segment which is greater than a diametrical dimension of the third segment, and the sleeve member is spaced apart from the second segment. ### Claim 6 (depends on 5) The wall anchor of claim 5, wherein the radial flange is adjacently connected with the first segment, in an axial direction of the main body, a thickness of the second portion protruding beyond the radial flange is smaller than or equal to ½ of a length of the first segment. ### Claim 7 (depends on 1) The wall anchor of claim 1, wherein the main body is made of a zinc alloy material by die-casting. ### Claim 8 (depends on 7) The wall anchor of claim 7, wherein the zinc alloy material has a zinc content of at least 95.5 wt % and an aluminum content of at least 3.9 wt %. ### Claim 9 (depends on 1) The wall anchor of claim 1, wherein the sleeve member is made of a nylon material, the head portion includes a lug and a through hole penetrating through the lug, and the first portion completely covers the lug and has an inner mold line and an outer mold line respectively extending in a circumferential direction of the through hole. ### Claim 10 (depends on 6) The wall anchor of claim 6, wherein the radial flange includes an upper surface close to the head portion and a lower surface opposite to the upper surface, the second portion includes a first annular surface facing the upper surface and a second annular surface facing the lower surface, and a thickness of the second annular surface is greater than a thickness of the first annular surface; the thickness of the second annular surface is at least 2 times of the thickness of the first annular surface; the radial flange includes two flat surfaces and two arcuate surfaces, the second portion includes a circumferential wall coveringly disposed on the two flat surfaces and the two arcuate surfaces, as viewed in the axial direction of the main body, a portion of the circumferential wall facing each of the two flat surfaces has a first thickness, and a portion of the circumferential wall facing each of the two arcuate surfaces has a second thickness smaller than the first thickness; the two flat surfaces extend parallel to each other; the first thickness is at least 3 times of the second thickness; the main body is made of a zinc alloy material by die-casting; the zinc alloy material has a zinc content of at least 95.5 wt % and an aluminum content of at least 3.9 wt %; the sleeve member is made of a nylon material, the head portion includes a lug and a through hole penetrating through the lug, and the first portion completely covers the lug and has an inner mold line and an outer mold line respectively extending in a circumferential direction of the through hole; a thickness of the lug is greater than a thickness of the radial flange; a hardness of the main body is greater than a hardness of the sleeve member; a diametrical dimension of the outer threaded segment is smaller than the diametrical dimension of the third segment; and a length of the outer threaded segment is greater than or equal to 2 cm.
