ABSTRACT:
Presently available mounting brackets do not permit preassembly or require expensive and time consuming methods of manufacture. It is desirable to provide a mounting bracket which may be inexpensively manufactured, allows easy insertion of a flexible securing element and which may be preassembled prior to attachment of an elongate article it supports. The subject arrangement provides a mounting bracket including a substantially flat, elongate body having a mounting end portion and a securing end portion. The securing end portion extends both longitudinally and at an oblique angle from the mounting end portion so that the securing end portion is spaced apart from a carrier member to which the mounting bracket is attached. The securing end portion permits installation of a flexible securing element securing thereto the elongate article to be supported. This arrangement permits preassembly of the mounting bracket and supports the elongate article in spaced apart relation to the carrier member as well as permitting easy insertion of the flexible securing element without requiring expensive manufacturing methods.
