ABSTRACT:
A hanger for attachment to a vertically disposed threaded support rod or the like for supporting a pipe or the like in generally horizontal position. The hanger comprises a support member of relatively resilient material which engages the undersurface of the pipe and which has a pair of legs extending upwardly at opposite sides of the pipe. The upper ends of the legs are bent laterally inwardly toward one another to form upper and lower generally horizontal overlapping flanges which overlie the pipe, each flange having an opening therein for receiving the support rod therethrough. A nut is held captive but rotatable with respect to the support member adjacent these flanges, the nut having a threaded hole generally in register with the opening in one of the flanges. The legs of the support member are sprung together from an initial position in which the upper ends of the legs are spaced relatively far apart for application of the hanger to the pipe, to a final position in which the upper ends of the legs are held relatively close together with the flange openings in register for receiving the support rod therethrough whereby the nut may be threaded onto the support rod for attachment of the hanger to the rod.
