Abstract

The stem connection of a back connected gauge instrument placed extending partially through an opening in a panel wall is received in an aperture of an elongated clamp plate adapted to span the instrument parallel to the backside of the panel. A keyed recess in communication with the plate aperture is adapted to interlock with a cooperative surface on the gauge stem at a predetermined location longitudinally spaced behind the gauge. A foot of a leg extending integrally from the plate at one end thereof toward the backside surface of the panel cooperates with a similarly extending preassembled thumb screw extending transversely through the plate at the opposite end to effect mounting. The thumb screw also serves to adjustably draw and secure the gauge into its mounted position.
