ABSTRACT:
A clip fastener for securing a partition wall to a ceiling T-Bar framework, has a clip portion of resilient material having a main body with opposed side edges. One side edge has a pair of longitudinally spaced shorter tabs overlying the main body, each shorter tab being a folded-over extension of said one side edge, and the opposite edge has a pair of longitudinally-spaced longer tabs overlying the main body, each longer tab being a folded-over extension of the opposite side edge. The width of the main clip body is greater than the width of opposed flanges of a T-Bar by an amount slightly greater than the length of the shorter tab in the direction of the longer tabs to enable the clip portion to be assembled with opposed flanges of a T-Bar by causing one flange to pass between the longer tabs and the main clip body, and then causing the opposite flange to pass between the shorter tab and the main clip body whereby both the shorter tabs and the longer tabs are in engagement with upper surfaces of the flanges. The main clip body has a depressed portion with a threaded aperture to enable a bolt to be assembled therewith by screwing the bolt shank downwardly through the aperture to position the head in engagement with the depressed portion of the main clip body below the level of the tabs. The bolt acts as an attachment for a track for a partition wall.
