Abstract
A molded thermstat strap is provided having a central thermostat receiving well. The strap is intended for insertion between the windings of a dynamoelectric machine, for example, an electric motor, during manufacture of the motor so that a thermostat element can be positioned between the windings after motor construction is completed. The strap includes a central well having wing members extending outwardly from opposite sides of the well. Means for removably locking a thermostat within the well is formed integrally with the strap. Means also is provided for holding the strap positionally secured in relation to the motor windings so that the strap does not move during motor constructional steps accomplished after placement of the strap between the motor windings.
