Abstract

A wire clip having resilient cantilevered tines which move in a cooperating manner to permit a wire to pass therethrough. The wire clip includes a base and first and second arms connected to and extending from the base. The first and second arms have distal ends which form the resilient tines. Wires must be manually maneuvered through the tines to be inserted into the clip. The tines will not inadvertently release a wire from the clip.
