Abstract
A clip assembly is disclosed for suspending objects from conventional track railings employed for supporting ceilings of the panel type. The clip has oppositely disposed side walls which are joined at one end and which have oppositely disposed end portions projecting inwardly from the free ends of said side walls. The end portions have a flat inner surface which, when slid on or snapped over the track railing, engage the flat surface of the track railing to thereby enable considerable weight to be suspended from a recess in a web integrally formed with said side walls.
