Abstract

A pipe support to fit different size conduits and suitable for automotive exhaust systems includes a snap-in clamp formed of a single piece of spring wire to have offset resilient jaws of elliptical shape that spread apart upon insertion of the conduit and then snap in place through their own inherent resiliency to hold the conduit in the desired suspended position and a helical coil that is fitted on a rubber support grommet.
