An apparatus for supporting pipe lines or the like on a supporting structure. The apparatus includes a housing for connection with the supporting structure and a pressure spring in the housing. The spring acts on a spring rest which is coupled with a support element in such a manner that the support element may be rotated to longitudinally adjust the position thereof relative to the spring rest. A preset spring force, corresponding with the pipe load anticipated during use and for offsetting such load, is maintained by a simple blocking device. The blocking device may include a crossbolt selectively connectable with the support element for blocking longitudinal movement of the spring rest. The arrangement of elements is such that, even when the blocking device is effective, the support element may still be rotated to effect further adjustment of the relative position of the spring rest and thus of the preset force of the spring. Also, the blocking device may selectively cooperate with a screw element, attached to the support element, to lock the support element in substantially any relative longitudinal position with respect to the spring housing.
