摘要： The invention relates to a clip assembly (50) comprising a plurality of clips (12) held together by non-metal, elongate, flexible members (30, 32) which are secured in openings (14, 16) in the bight portion (18) of each clip by pressing the side edges (20, 22) of each bight portion (18) toward each other. The method of making the clip assembly (50) includes the steps of: punching clip blanks (10) having two punched openings (14, 16) from a sheet of metal, folding or forming each clip around a mandrel to form a U-shaped clip; placing a plurality of U-shaped clips in a row with the openings (14, 16) aligned to form troughs; placing a non-metal, elongate, flexible member (30, 32) in each trough (28, 29) and sequentially pressing the side edges (20, 22) of the bight portion of each clip toward each other to crimp the flexible members in the openings (14, 16).
