A unitary suspension clip for suspending gypsum board panels from the horizontal channel member of an erect support structure. The plate portion of the clip has panel-piercing members projecting rearwardly to affix the plate to the panel. A transverse line of weakness extends substantially across the width of the plate such that when the panel is suspended from the channel member, the load applied between the channel member and the plate causes the plate to bend therealong to prevent the pulling of the panel-piercing members out of the panel. A wing is formed along the edge of the plate and extends outwardly therefrom with a second line of weakness running in the same direction as the edge of the plate between the wing and the plate. The wing is bent at the second line of weakness upwardly from the surface of the gypsum board panel and has an angled surface formed therein which rests on the horizontal channel member and causes the panel to be drawn into engagement with the erect support structure.

Pince de suspension unitaire servant à suspendre des panneaux de placoplâtre à partir de l'élément en U horizontal d'une structure de support verticale. La plaque de la pince comporte des éléments perceurs de panneaux faisant saillie vers l'arrière et servant à la fixer sur le panneau. Une ligne transversale de faiblesse se prolonge essentiellement sur toute la largeur de la plaque de sorte que, lorsque le panneau pend de l'élément en U, la charge appliquée entre l'élément en U et la plaque fait plier cette dernière le long de la ligne en question pour empêcher les éléments perceurs de panneaux de sortir du panneau. Une aile, formée sur le bord de la plaque, se prolonge vers l'extérieur et comporte une seconde ligne de faiblesse se prolongeant dans le même sens que le bord de la plaque entre l'aile et la plaque elle-même. € la seconde ligne de faiblesse, l'aile est pliée vers le haut en s'éloignant de la surface du panneau de placoplâtre et présente une surface inclinée qui s'appuie sur l'élément en U horizontal et amène le panneau à être en contact avec la structure de support verticale.
