Claim:
1. A bracket for mounting wiring on a stud, the bracket comprising: a stud securement portion configured for attachment to a wall stud, the stud securement portion including a front wall and a side wall extending generally rearward from the front wall; a stationary jaw having a longitudinal axis extending laterally outward from adjacent a rear end of the side wall; a clamping jaw having a first longitudinal end integrally formed with the side wall of the stud securement portion adjacent a rear end of the side wall, a second longitudinal end spaced laterally from the side wall of the stud securement portion, and a longitudinal axis extending between the first and second longitudinal ends of the clamping jaw, the clamping jaw being at least one of the following for clamping the wiring between the stationary jaw and the clamping jaw: pivotable relative to the stationary jaw and bendable along its longitudinal axis; wherein a portion of the clamping jaw including the second longitudinal end is positioned rearward of the stationary jaw such that the stationary jaw engages a front portion of the wiring and the clamping jaw engages a rear portion of the wiring when the wiring is clamped therebetween, wherein the stationary jaw is rigid, relative to the clamping jaw, along its longitudinal axis such that the stationary jaw remains substantially stationary relative to the stud securement portion as the wiring is clamped between the stationary jaw and the clamping jaw, wherein the stationary jaw includes a free longitudinal end spaced from the side wall of the stud securement portion, wherein the clamping jaw includes a locking tie adjacent its second longitudinal end to lock the second longitudinal end of the clamping jaw to the stationary jaw.
