ABSTRACT:
A clip for joining crossed reinforcing bars while holding each of the bars independently of the other includes a formed body of resilient plastic material of general U-shape configuration including confronting flange portions carried by an intermediate web portion at one end of the flanges. The interior surfaces of the flanges are formed to include arcuately relieved portions for yieldingly receiving and gripping one bar lying therein in a plane disposed between the planes of each of the flanges. The flanges also include aligned openings formed therethrough for receiving another bar disposed crosswise of the first bar. The flanges include passages leading into the aligned openings to permit the second bar to be lodged in the aligned openings independently of the first bar. Inner circumferential portions of the aligned openings are formed to include a thin flexible lip extending radially into the aligned openings for accommodating variations in sizes of reinforcing bars and frusto-conically shaped recesses adjacent the aligned openings are formed in the outer surfaces of the flanges for readily receiving reinforcing bars therein.
