A one-piece clip ensures uniform holding capacity that increases as tension is applied. The threaded stud version is available in nine diameters and multiple lengths. A single size tie-wire version is available for wire supported fixtures. Threaded studs are set by tightening the nut. Tie-wire anchors are set with the claw end of a hammer.
