Abstract

A slightly flexible and generally C-shaped cable support apparatus for quick attachment and detachment from a sheet material support structure to which a plurality of cables can be tied using cable ties and which locks in place after the cable support apparatus is temporarily deformed and moved laterally into position. Removal is accomplished by temporarily deforming the support apparatus and removing in the opposite direction from the insertion. The holding means used in the insertion process are devised to accept different thicknesses of sheet material support structure. An edge of the C-shaped portion of the cable support apparatus is designed to reduce cable insulation damage on sharp edges of the sheet material by extending over and covering same.
