ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE Apparatus for suspending and connecting a pair of tubular members, particularly a pair of radiant heater tubes, wherein each tubular member has an expanded end and a straight end so that successive tubular members are connected by slip joints. The suspending and connecting apparatus of the preferred embodiment includes a pair of brackets fixedly secured to the body of one tubular member generally adjacent to the straight end thereof, and a pair of semi-circular clamping members forming a ring about the adjoining tubular member and engaging the expanded end thereof. Holes formed in the clamping members and brackets are alignable so that a pair of screws may be inserted therein to operatively engage a pair of nuts retained by the brackets. The brackets include holes for attachment to conventional suspension systems, so that one bracket for each tubular member may be employed to suspend the assembly from a ceiling or other overhead support structure. The compressive forces created by the clamping members and brackets effectively prevents relative longitudinal and rotational movement between the tubular members.
