Abstract
Provided is a metal clip to facilitate the inserting work. A metal clip for fixing a shaftlike member to a mount member having a through hole is constructed in such structure that a U-shaped slit is formed in an open shape in the body and that at outer edges of two side pieces defining the U-shaped slit elastic legs are provided for pushing the two side pieces up away from a surface of the mount member around the through hole, whereby the two side pieces can be inserted into a small-diameter groove of the shaftlike member while keeping the two side pieces up away from the surface of the mount member.
