Abstract
A mounting device configured to secure an elongate element to a threaded stud using a flexible cable tie is described herein. The mounting device includes a body portion defining a cavity oriented along a longitudinal axis having an opening configured to receive the stud. The cavity defines a flexible pawl configured to engage a thread of the plurality of helical threads, thereby securing the mounting device to the stud. The mounting device also includes a support portion arranged on a distal end of the body portion opposite the opening having a support surface configured to engage the elongate element and a first enclosed channel arranged along a lateral axis. The first channel defines a first pair of cable tie apertures configured to receive the flexible cable tie as it is wrapped about the elongate element, thereby securing the elongate element to the mounting device.
