What the heck would this be called?

In the above image, notice the white insulator at the top right of the image, and the little brass clip that's screwed to the top of it (it's holding a wire)?

Anyone have any ideas what that brass clip would be called (or where to get one)?

I've searched all over. It looks like a pretty standard piece of hardware, but I can't think of what it'd be called.

Hoopz:

Cable clip?  Wire clip?  Wire/cable hook?

That's what I would have thought, but I got bupkus with those keywords

Yes I have seen them before too.  I had to make some of those for a repair project.

I used perforated metal strips, a butane torch, metal cutters and some good pliers.



I believe you should always try to make them yourself before you go out and try to resource.

Probably take less time to make it yourself then trying to find an alternative.

Looks like Build Your Own is also the apt way to go?  ;D

drventure:

Well, yeah, I've done plenty of that  :)

I do have some sheet brass, but I don't have a break or a decent way to bend it like that. I might give it a go if I can't turn up something though.

Looks like they my be called "P clips". I'm hunting in that direction now.
