A hanger for suspending a first component from a second elevated component comprising a first body member formed of a thermoplastic elastomer having a first durometer hardness and a tensile strength sufficient to support the first component, and having a pair of spaced openings therein; a second body member formed of a thermoplastic elastomer having a durometer hardness less than the first durometer hardness, disposed within one of the openings of the first body member and being molded integrally therewith and having an opening therein for receiving an attachment element of the second elevated component; and a third body member formed of a thermoplastic elastomer having a durometer hardness less than the first durometer hardness, disposed within the other of the openings of the first body member and being molded integrally therewith and having an opening therein for receiving an attachment element of the first component; the materials of the second and third body member being compatible with the material of the first body member to permit the molding of the second and third body members with the first body member in a semi-molten state whereby the materials are molded together to provide an integral structure of at least a dual durometer hardness.
