Abstract
A clip is provided for securing a cross tee to a main runner in a suspended ceiling grid system. The clip comprises a first leg configured to extend through the slot in the web of the main runner so as to lie alongside the web of a cross tee whose connector extends through the slot in a direction opposite to that of the first leg; a second leg extending generally perpendicularly to the first leg so as to lie alongside the web of the main runner; and a third leg extending generally perpendicularly to the second leg and generally parallel to the first leg. The third leg is sized to extend through an aperture in the web of the main runner and then be bent to lie alongside the web of the main runner on a side opposite to that of the second leg.
