ABSTRACT:
A snap spring clip supports conduit, cables, and the like from a structure and has a C-shape body with one end of the body cooperating with the other end to form a restricted opening into which such conduit, cables and the like may be snapped. The one end of the body may be formed with a reversely flared lip while the other end is folded back on itself to form a U-shape clasp, the outer leg of the clasp being in the form of a more narrow finger extending generally parallel and adjacent the inner leg. The finger is somewhat longer than the inner leg and extends midway between barbs struck from each edge of the inner leg. The U-shape clasp is formed with a flattened bulb fold providing sufficient area to push the clip to a locking position with the finger extending through a hole. Once in the hole, because of the configuration of the fold, and the relative size of the hole and finger width, the clip is locked in place.
