1. A bracket for coupling a urinal to a soil pipe, comprising: a body portion defining a first opening configured to be in fluid communication with the soil pipe, the body portion having a first surface configured to receive a resilient gasket;an arm extending outwardly from the body portion, the arm having a structure configured to receive a fastener for coupling the bracket to the urinal, the structure having a first surface positioned forward of the first surface of the body portion; anda threaded surface at least partially defining the first opening and configured to threadably couple to the soil pipe. 2. The bracket of claim 1, wherein when the bracket is in an installed position, the bracket is configured to compress the resilient gasket against the urinal, and wherein the forward positioning of the first surface of the structure relative to the first surface of the body portion is configured to reduce bending of the bracket. 3. The bracket of claim 1, wherein when the bracket is in an installed position the first surface of the structure contacts the urinal. 4. The bracket of claim 1, wherein the structure comprises a projection provided at a distal end of the arm. 5. The bracket of claim 1, wherein the threads of the threaded surface are internal threads. 6. The bracket of claim 1, wherein the resilient gasket is integrally formed with the body portion to provide a molded-in gasket. 7. The bracket of claim 1, wherein the body portion and the arm include a substrate formed of a first material and including a first opening and at least one second opening, the first opening axially aligned with the first opening of the body portion, and a second opening axially aligned with a second opening of the structure; and a covering at least partially disposed over the substrate;wherein the covering is formed of a second material that is different than the first material. 8. The bracket of claim 1, wherein the body portion further comprises a second surface axially opposite the first surface, the second surface comprising a recess configured to allow flexure of the arm relative to the body portion while reducing bending of the body portion. 9. A bracket for coupling a urinal to a soil pipe, comprising: a body portion defining an axially extending first opening configured to be in fluid communication with the soil pipe, the body portion having a first surface configured to receive a resilient gasket for sealing between the bracket and the urinal;an arm extending outwardly from the body portion, the arm defining a second opening configured to receive a fastener for coupling the bracket to the urinal; anda tapered rib extending along the arm outward from the body portion, the rib being located on a side of the bracket configured to face the urinal and increasing in axial thickness as the rib extends outward from the body portion. 10. The bracket of claim 9, wherein the rib changes direction as the rib extends outward from the body portion. 11. The bracket of claim 9, further comprising a structure located on the arm distal the body portion, the structure comprising: a nut formed of a first material, aligned coaxially to the second opening such that the fastener engages a threaded surface of the nut; anda covering at least partially disposed over the nut, wherein the covering is formed of a second material that is different than the first material. 12. The bracket of claim 11, wherein the arm comprises a front surface on the side proximate the urinal, and wherein the rib forms a web between the front surface and a sidewall of the structure. 13. The bracket of claim 9, further comprising at least one structure at least partially defining the second opening, the structure comprising a forward surface spaced axially apart from the first surface of the body portion such that when the bracket is in an installed position, the forward surface is closer to the urinal than the first surface. 14. The bracket of claim 9, wherein the body portion comprises a recess on a side of the body portion axially opposite the first surface, the recess extending at least partially around the first opening, wherein the recess substantially isolates flexure of the arm relative to the body portion from the first opening. 15. A bracket for coupling a urinal to a soil pipe, comprising: a body portion defining a first opening configured to be in fluid communication with the soil pipe;an arm extending outwardly from the body portion and configured to receive a fastener for coupling the bracket to the urinal; anda recess provided at least partially around the first opening to allow flexure of the arm relative to the body portion while reducing bending of the body portion. 16. The bracket of claim 15, wherein the body portion includes a first side configured to face the urinal after being installed and a second side opposite the first side, wherein the recess is defined by the second side of the body portion. 17. The bracket of claim 15, wherein the recessed portion extends around the first opening in a substantially continuous manner. 18. The bracket of claim 15, further comprising: a second arm extending outwardly from the body portion and configured to receive a second fastener for coupling the bracket to the urinal; andwherein when the bracket is in an installed position, the recess is configured to allow the first arm and the second arm to flex relative to the body portion such that the first arm and the second arm at least partially contact the urinal. 19. The bracket of claim 15, wherein the body portion includes a first surface configured to receive a gasket and the arm includes a projection having a surface that is configured to contact the urinal, wherein the surface of the projection is positioned forward of the first surface of the body portion. 20. The bracket of claim 15, further comprising a structure located on the arm distal the body portion and at least partially defining a second opening for receiving the fastener, the structure comprising: a nut formed of a first material, aligned coaxially to the second opening such that the fastener engages a threaded surface of the nut; anda covering at least partially disposed over the nut, wherein the covering is formed of a second material that is different than the first material.
