The anti-rotation bracket according to the present invention prevents a pipe from rotating with respect to an appliance in which it is installed. The bracket includes a U-shaped member, an attachment mechanism for securing the U-shaped member to an appliance, and at least one clip extending from each of two legs of the U-shaped member for securing a rectangular crimped section of a pipe. The U-shaped member has a base and first and second legs which are spaced to receive the rectangular section of the pipe therebetween. The clips extend inward from each of the legs towards an opposite one of the legs and are configured to engage one of the flat surfaces of the rectangular section of the pipe to prevent rotation of the pipe with respect to the bracket when the bracket is attached to the appliance.

Anti-rotation bracket

A universal bracket assembly for gas risers includes first and second L-shaped members with each member having a main body portion and a flange extending from one end of the main body portion. A first aperture is provided in the L-shaped member, in each flange, through which a first fastener can extend. A second aperture is provided in the L-shaped member, in each of the main body portions, through which a second fastener can extend to secure the main body portions to each other. The first and second L-shaped members can be secured to each other in different ways to create several different structures whereby different numbers of gas risers can be supported. The bracket assembly can also be secured to varying types of support structures.
