The present invention refers to an improved pipe clamping apparatus. This apparatus is of the single-piece type, which comprises a first and a second arcuate wing, wherein such wings are joined to each other through a hinge that regulates their mutual arrangement from an open position to a closed position in which said arcuate wings are linked up with each other so as to form a pipe supporting ring, said apparatus being substantially characterized in that said arcuate wings comprise end portions for engaging each other, in which through-holes are provided for inserting screws therein, along with corresponding receptacles for the engagement of said screws, as well as in that from the first one of said arcuate wings there extends a hollow box-like base defining a through-hole that is so shaped as to form at least a receptacle which, being accessible from said ring, is capable of accomodating a nut for fastening to a support element, at least a tab for partially obstructing the accessibility thereof extending from each one of said through-holes of said end portions, wherein said screws, which are pre-assembled into said through-holes, are so prevented from sliding axially. |
