Abstract

An element for hanging tools that have an SDS-shank wherein the hanging element includes a lug (1) and an elastically-deformable sleeve-like body (3, 30). Body (3, 30) includes at least one bulge or fold (12) that defines a clearance (20). Body (3, 30) also includes at least one protrusion (18) that engages a flute of the SDS-shank to retain the SDS-shank in body (3, 30). Clearance (20) allows body (3, 30) to deform when the SDS-shank is inserted therein.
