Abstract
A clamping member for a lighting fixture, includes first and second parts. The first part has a receiving portion and a first clamping portion extending therefrom that has opposing first and second surfaces. The second part is separable from the first part, and has a main portion and a second clamping portion extending from the main portion. The second clamping portion has first and second opposing surfaces. The main portion is received in the receiving portion of the first part forming a friction fit so that a support receiving area is defined between the second surface of the first clamping portion and the first surface of the second clamping portion. A fastener is disposed on the second surface of the second clamping portion for engaging the lighting fixture.
