Pipe clip with spring washer

摘要

A pipe clip (1) for fastening a pipe to a support, comprises an annular clip body with a first and second flange (7, 5). A male fastening element (13) comprising a head (13b) and a shank (13a), which is associated with the first flange. The head engages the second flange for tightening the first and second flanges together in a mounted state. The pipe clip comprises a washer (20) with an opening for the shank of the male fastening element. The second flange (5) is provided with an opening adapted to allow the head (13b) of the male fastening element to pass through. The washer in a mounted state of the pipe clip engages on one side the second flange in an area surrounding said opening in the second flange and engages on an opposite side the head of the male fastening element. The washer (20) is pre-mounted as a collar surrounding the shank adjacent the head of the male fastening element. The washer is resilient and adapted to be subjected to a reduction of its outer diameter upon passing through the opening in the second flange with the head of the male fastening element and to expand again after it has passed through said opening. Alternatively the washer is mounted to the second flange and is a resilient part having an opening, adapted to resiliently expand from an original dimension to a dimension which allows the head of the male fastening to pass through and to resiliently return to the original dimension when the head has passed through.
