Abstract

A vertically elongated thin, generally planar body constructed of at least reasonably stiff and shape retentive material is provided including opposite ends and opposite face sides and edges extending between the ends. The upper end portion of the body includes a plurality of integral angulated tangs struck therefrom, projecting outwardly from the face sides and inclined outwardly from the body toward the lower end of the body. The tangs include sharpened outer lower ends and the lower end of the body includes support structure from which an article to be suspended beneath a pan roof of the type including at least one pair of laterally adjacent elongated pan roof sections including adjacent longitudinal side upwardly projecting closely juxtaposed flanges may be supported. The upper end portion of the planar body may be wedged upwardly between at least the lower end portions of the flanges to a position with the sharpened lower ends of the tangs biting into the opposing faces of the flanges and the article to be suspended beneath the roof may be removably supported from the lower end of the planar body.
