The T-shaped transverse notch allows the grate clip to be mounted onto a grate bar support. A fastener, while releasably securing the two pieces together, allows the two pieces to be extended apart and easily mounted on and removed from the grate bar support. The grate clips, when mounted and arranged side by side in rows upon each grate support bar, comprise a traveling grate stoker having a uniform, level grate surface.
