A ceramic heater coil support bracket, suitable for use in a clothes dryer, supports a helically wound heating coil in spaced apart relation from a support surface or wall. The bracket includes a base adapted for securement to the support surface and a pair of spaced apart arms upstanding from the base defining an open slot extending across the bracket in a transverse direction above the base. Each of the arms includes a coil support post having an arrowhead shape extending inwardly toward of the slot. Each of the posts includes inner and outer coil receiving grooves adapted to receive consecutive turns of the coil. The posts are laterally offset from each other in the transverse direction of the slot so that the posts support different consecutive turns of the coil. The posts have a relatively flat upper surface having an arrowhead shape projecting into the slot with sloping inside and outside surfaces of the arrowhead tapering outwardly and downwardly from the top surface. The arrowhead has two barbs each defining one wall of the grooves. The inner and outer receiving grooves of each of the posts are spaced apart in the direction of coil pitch a distance slightly larger than one coil pitch. The inner receiving grooves of each of the coil slots are spaced apart a distance slightly less than 1/2 the pitch of the coil. There is also disclosed an arrangement for mounting the bracket in the supporting wall in which the supporting wall includes a slot having widened and narrowed ends that co-operate with the bracket to hold the bracket in the slot.
