ABSTRACT:
A sleeve (16) having a shipping section (24) for loosely holding a collar (22) to allow the sleeve (16) to be adjusted axially along the conduit (14) to the desired support position. Therafter, a clamp, strap, or other support structure, (18) clamps a support section (21) of the sleeve (16) which is sufficiently rigid and strong to prevent collapse inwardly. To prevent further axial movement of the slave (16) along the conduit (14), the collar (16) is forced over a retention shoulder (28) to radially collapse a gripping section (20) of the sleeve as facilitated by longitudinal slits (26) in the sleeve (16).
