Abstract
A pillar loop for belts, such as seat belts in cars or the like, and particularly the type of pillar loop which is secured to a vehicle and having a belt extending therethrough for guidance of the latter. The pillar loop is of round steel which can be constructed in a simplified manner in comparison with known methods. As mentioned above, it has heretofore been necessary to use plate material for securing pillar loops which are made of round steel, for instance, to a car wall.
