A rod-engaging support device (<HIL><PDAT>1</BOLD><PDAT>) is formed from plastics material. The body (<HIL><PDAT>2</BOLD><PDAT>) of the device (<HIL><PDAT>1</BOLD><PDAT>) supports a fitting e.g. rod connector, suspension hook or munsen ring, which fitting may be integral or removably securable thereto. The device (<HIL><PDAT>1</BOLD><PDAT>) further incorporates rod engagement means (<HIL><PDAT>4, 5</BOLD><PDAT>) wherein the rod is received by the engagement means (<HIL><PDAT>4, 5</BOLD><PDAT>) in a first position and following relative rotation of the device (<HIL><PDAT>1</BOLD><PDAT>) with respect to the rod, the rod is gripped by the engagement means (<HIL><PDAT>4, 5</BOLD><PDAT>) in a second position.</PTEXT> |
