A fail-safe wall anchor for cavity walls includes a wingnut including receptors for receiving pintles of a veneer tie. Thermally insulative material is provided to inhibit transfer of heat from the veneer tie to the wall anchor. Back up structure is provided in the event the thermally insulative material fails to maintain the structural connection between the wall anchor and the veneer tie.

1. A fail-safe wall anchor for cavity walls, the wall anchor for engaging a veneer tie, the wall anchor comprising: a stud-type anchor having an elongated body with a driving end and a driven end;a hybrid wingnut disposed on the driving end of the stud-type anchor body, the hybrid wingnut further comprising: a fail-safe wingnut portion with a shaftway therethrough for the stud-type anchor and with receptors for receiving the veneer tie;a fail-prone wingnut portion of molded thermoplastic with a shaftway therethrough for the stud-type anchor body and receptors for receiving the veneer tie, the fail-prone wingnut portion melting upon extreme temperature conditions and the veneer tie being securely held by the fail-safe wingnut portion, the fail-prone wingnut portion under normal operating conditions providing an in-cavity thermal break between the veneer tie and the wall anchor, wherein the fail-safe wingnut portion is of stamped metal and forms a frame, the fail-prone wingnut portion being positioned within the frame, thereby forming an exterior fail-safe wall anchor and an interior fail-prone wall anchor; and,a bolt securing the hybrid wingnut to the stud-type anchor body. 2. A fail-safe anchor as in claim 1, wherein the fail-prone wingnut portion is formed by undermolding. 3. A fail-safe anchor as in claim 2, wherein the driving end of the stud-type anchor body is threaded, and, during undermolding, mating threads are formed on the fail-prone wingnut portion. 4. A fail-safe anchor as in claim 1, wherein the fail-prone wingnut portion extends into the shaftway of the fail-safe wingnut portion. 5. A fail-safe anchor as in claim 1, wherein the stud-type anchor is free from thermoplastic coating. 6. A fail-safe wall anchor for cavity walls, the wall anchor for engaging pintles of a veneer tie, the wall anchor comprising: a stud-type anchor having an elongated body with a driving end and a driven end;a hybrid wingnut disposed on the driving end of the stud-type anchor, the hybrid wingnut having a central opening therethrough for disposition thereof on the stud-type anchor, the hybrid wingnut further comprising: a first wingnut portion of fire-resistant material with receptors for accepting the pintles;a second wingnut portion of thermally insulative material with receptors for accepting the pintles, the receptors thereof being co-extensive with the receptors of the first wingnut portion, the second wingnut portion having a thickness selected to provide a thermal barrier between the first wingnut portion and a veneer tie attached to the hybrid wingnut, wherein the first wingnut portion is formed from a pair of metal stampings and is secured to the stud-type anchor by attaching hardware threadedly mounted to the stud-type anchor. 7. A fail-safe wall anchor as in claim 6, wherein the first wingnut portion is of stamped metal and forms an armature upon which the second wingnut portion is overmolded, thereby forming a first wall anchor within a second wall anchor. 8. A fail-safe wall anchor as in claim 7, wherein the driving end of the stud-type anchor body is threaded, and the armature has a plurality of apertures leading to the shaftway allowing, during overmolding, for the flow of molten thermoplastic to form mating threads with those of the stud-type anchor body. 9. A fail-safe wall anchor as in claim 7 wherein the metal of the armature is selected from a group consisting of stainless steel, carbon steel, galvanized steel, and zinc cast steel. 10. A fail-safe anchor as in claim 6 wherein the metal stampings are constructed of a metal selected from a group consisting of stainless steel, carbon steel, galvanized steel, and zinc cast steel. 11. A fail-safe anchor as in claim 10 wherein the driving end of the stud-type anchor is threaded and the first wingnut portion has a plurality of apertures leading to the central opening therethrough allowing, during overmolding, for the flow of molten thermoplastic to form mating threads with those of the stud-type anchor. 12. A fail-safe anchor as in claim 6 wherein the second wingnut portion is overmolded from a thermoplastic disposed atop the first wingnut portion. 13. A fail-safe anchor as in claim 6 wherein the metal stampings increase the tension and compression rating of the wall anchor. 14. A fail-safe anchor as in claim 6 wherein the second wingnut portion has a thermoplastic body and is engirded by the first wingnut portion, the first wingnut portion comprising a metal, fire-resistant band. 15. A fail-safe anchor as in claim 14 wherein the band is constructed of a metal selected from a group consisting of stainless steel, carbon steel, galvanized steel, and zinc cast steel. 16. A fail-safe anchor as in claim 15 wherein the second wingnut portion is formed by undermolding. 17. A fail-safe wall anchor for cavity walls the cavity wall having an inner wythe and an outer wythe with a cavity therebetween, the wall anchor for interengaging with pintles of a veneer tie, the wall anchor comprising: a stud-type body of unitary construction having a driven end for self-tapping into metal columns and a driving end, the driving end extending, upon installation into the cavity of the cavity wall; and,a hybrid wingnut providing redundant connectivity for the veneer tie by having a thermoplastic receptor for an in-cavity thermal break and a metal receptor coextensive therewith for fail-safe operation at exceedingly high temperatures, the metal receptor comprising a shaftway extending therethrough for receiving the stud-type body, wherein the thermoplastic receptor extends into the shaftway of the metal receptor. 18. A fail-safe wall anchor as in claim 17 wherein the hybrid wingnut utilizes the metal receptor as an armature for overmolding the thermoplastic receptor thereon. 19. A fail-safe wall anchor as in claim 18 wherein the metal receptor is constructed of a metal selected from a group consisting of stainless steel, carbon steel, galvanized steel, and zinc cast steel. 20. A fail-safe anchor as in claim 18 wherein the metal receptor increases the tension and compression rating of the wall anchor.
