VIBRATION ISOLATING INSERT FOR A PIPE CLIP AND METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING SUCH AN INSERT.

摘要

A vibration-isolating insert (1) for a pipe clip is adapted to bear against an inner circumference of a substantially annular pipe clip body and ultimately - in use - to be positioned between the outer circumference of a pipe and the pipe clip body. The vibration-isolating insert comprises an elongate strip (2) of vibration-isolating material which has a pipe facing side (3) and a pipe clip facing side (4). The strip (2) of vibration-isolating material has adjacent either lateral edge thereof a series of discrete exposed hooks (5a, 5b) of plastics material which is more rigid than the vibration-isolating material. The hooks (5a, 5b) protrude relative to the pipe clip facing side (4) of the strip (2) of vibration-isolating material.
