ABSTRACT:
A conduit support includes a longitudinally extending channel-shaped member having a pair of spaced apart side walls. The side walls have free end portions turned inwardly to form opposed flanges that extend the length of the conduit support. A rigid buckle-like member is positioned within the conduit support so as to bridge the opposed flanges. The rigid member is supported by the flanges for slidable movement to a selected position along the length of the channel support. The rigid member includes a body portion having a plurality of fingers forming a first slot and a second slot extending through the body portion and spaced from one another. Each slot includes an open end portion and a closed end portion, thereby forming parallel, spaced apart arms connected by a bridge section. A flexible locking strip or cable tie of a preselected length extends upwardly through one of the slots across one of the arms and through the other slot and into surrounding relation with a cable. The free ends of the band are locked together to secure the cable to the structural support.
