Abstract
A clip for the retention of pipes and cables of various diameters or thicknesses comprising a first pair of resilient support members spaced apart by a distance smaller than the diameter of the smallest object to be retained and supported, the resilient support members being temporarily displaceable to allow the object to press between the support members and the support members resuming their original position after the passage of the object so as to retain the object and further comprising as opposing resilient support members a pair of flexible fingers which are arranged scissor-wise side-by-side and adapted to urge the object towards the first pair of resilient support members so that the object is maintained in contact therewith. The first pair of resilient support members may take the form of relatively short resilient fingers or may be flexible fin-like members extending across the clip.
