A clip for suspending a horizontal pipe from a ceiling joist has a cut ring for supporting the pipe, two prongs projecting from the ring, and securing holes in the prongs for securing the prongs to the joist with a nail or screw. The pipe enters the ring through the cut. The clip is then secured into a closed position, with the cut ends of the cylinder in close contact. Each prong has a lower end, which is angled slightly toward the cut, and an upper end bent at a large angle from the lower end. In closed position, the upper prongs align in parallel, with one prong directly in front of the other. The securing holes in the two prongs are then aligned so that a nail or screw can pass through both of them. The clip, ideally constructed from plastic, is inexpensive and easy to install and reuse.
