Means for suspending equipment (32) from an overhead structural member (21) comprises a suspension strand (11), e.g. of wire or wire rope, provided at one end with a screwthreaded portion (12), together with a locking device (13) having twin bores (14A, 14B) each preferably associated with wedging means (15A, 15B) preventing withdrawal of the free end (16) of the strand (11) in the opposite direction to insertion. The screwthreaded portion (12) may be screwed into the overhead structural member (21), or into the equipment (32), the free end (16) of the strand (11) passed through one bore (14A) of the locking device, through an eye (31) on the equipment (32) or round the equipment, or through an eye (38) on the overhead structural member (21) or round the overhead structural member, then back through the other bore (14B) of the locking device (13) to be secured therein by the wedging means (15B). Other methods are also described and claimed, as well as equipment suspension kits.
