What is the name for these? I wanting to get some for a project I am working no but have no clue what they are called. They are made of metal and are rather small. They are used to clip things into them like a rod or whatever. Here's a sketchup I made to show what it is.... Hopefully someone knows what they are called.
i'd call it a "bent scrap of metal". or a rod hanger. edit: no, it's a conduit clamp (see john, i can be productive too )
On a productive note - how small is small? Shower curtain ring small? Ball point pen small? Clip what to tubing? john
Small is small enough to hold a 3/8" or so rod in it. I should have mentioned that. They arent necessarily shaped exactly like that. I only spent a few min on that. But you get the idea Im sure. supertoad, sorry thats not what I want. edit: heres one that looks better
I'd just call them brackets and be done with it. On a more serious note though: There are these things, which would translate to something like tube-/pipe-wrappers. Then there are these, which seem more solid and which would translate to something like tube-/pipe-clamps. Those are the ones I were able to find rapidly, and I think a common name for them would be something along the lines of pipe-clamps.
Could be a cane holder of some sort. They normally have these small square-ish rubber rollers on them, though.
its for my shifter I made for my PC.I have it finished already and currently using spring to keep it in place but the wires I soldered onto the springs dont always keep a secure connection. I've seen someone use things just like I posted to hold the shifter rod in gear. That will have a way better connection between the rod and I wont have problems with it 'jumping out of gear'. I'll see if I can find a pic of someone else using it.
Looks like a curtain rod holder to me... or something'or'other... Why not head to a local hardware store and find one? I once shopped around a Menards for like 30 minutes trying to find some 'banding' metal... it seemed if you didnt know the exact name for it no one in the store had a clue. Better off just looking for it!
Go into your local hardware store and look around in the plumbing section. Pipe clips are quite common and come in a variety of different sizes/shapes.
Trying? Didn't atomic get it with this? Looks exactly right to me...did you scroll all the way down? There's one like this: Vaguely resembles your second mock-up. To be honest if it's not on that page he linked it probably doesn't exist
Do you mean these? In the UK we call them spring tool clips http://www.screwfix.com/prods/13985/Fixings/Tool-Clips/Tool-Clip-Pack-of-10
