Abstract
A generally L-shaped clamp for rigidly mounting a copper water pipe to a segment of HYCO strap. The clamp has a pipe supporting portion with a hole for receiving a segment of copper water pipe therethrough. The clamp further has a strap backing portion connected to the pipe supporting portion for overlying a side surface of a segment of HYCO strap. At least one locator element extends from the pipe supporting portion for insertion into a preselected hole in the strap. A bracket portion extends a right angle from a side of the strap backing portion opposite the pipe supporting portion. Flanges which extend from the pipe supporting portion and springs which extend from the bracket portion engage opposite side edges of the strap to hold the clamp in position. The clamp is preferably stamped from the single piece of sheet steel which is copper plated so that the copper water pipe can be soldered directly to the clamp.
