ABSTRACT:
The disclosure relates to a resilient friction clip adapted to be received over and to frictionally grip the wire portion of a merchandise display hook, such as used pegboard displays. The clip is formed of resilient material, of extruded, or more preferably molded construction. A center aperture is provided for gripping the wire, and a radial slit extends from the periphery of the clip into the center aperture, enabling the clip to be forcibly applied over the wire. A pair of angularly disposed manipulating tabs are formed integrally on the clip, opposite to and symmetrical with the radial slit. The manipulating tabs may be gripped by the fingers and squeezed together, to open the radial slit and greatly facilitate application of the clip onto the wire. Squeezing of the manipulating tab also tends to release the friction grip of the clip on the wire for easy adjustment of its position. At the same time, squeezing of the tabs does not facilitate unauthorized removal of the clip, in that the center aperture does not open to the diameter of the wire.
