ABSTRACT:
A clip-type support for use in installing trench drain systems. The clip device has two clip structures spaced from each other along a central web to engage, clamp and support two inter-engaging end portions of adjacent drain channel sections. A middle portion of the clip device separating the two clip structures has two deformable tabs, each located on opposite sides of the web. The tabs have apertures for engaging support rods which support the clip and drain channel sections within a trench in which the trench drain system is being installed. By deforming the tabs, the apertures are aligned relative to the rods thereby allowing the clip to move along the rods to align the adjacent drain channel sections. When the tabs are not deformed, the apertures are not aligned thereby locking the clip in place relative to the rods.
