Abstract: A conduit strap (10) is disclosed for installing a conduit (12) through an aperture (16) in a metal stud (14). The strap (10) will secure the conduit (12) in place without the use of any fasteners. The strap is installed by inserting a arm (26) through the aperture in the metal stud and then rotating the strap so that a portion of another arm (20) pass through the aperture and engages the back side of the stud to tightly secure the strap within the stud.

Abstract: A tool (10) facilitates use of self-stripping electrical connectors (12). The connectors are formed into a string held within a holder (14) and indexed sequentially to the forward end of the body where an integral pair of crimping pliers (16) activates the first connector in the string.
