Abstract

A tube hanger for a cable conveying system including a pair of substantially identical sheet metal members wherein each of the members includes a hook portion, a tube engaging portion and a suspension portion with an opening being disposed in the suspension portion. The hook portions are connected together and the openings are in alignment for reception of an S-shaped hook for connecting the tube hanger to a supporting member and for holding the members together in a tube supporting position. The sheet metal members have an inside contour which is identical to the outside contour whereby such members can be stamped from a single sheet of metal without wasting material between members being formed.
