upon which the movable parts Moiuited about the tube 14 1 supply the friction anchor 16. this anchor comprises a lower ring 17, an
the anchor is held in about the relative position shown in Fig. 1. fixen the tubing has been lowered to its destination, it is raised a few inches (for enough tocariry the slots up on the studs so that the lower ends of the slots engage the studs) lonfr arms-2`3 .of the slots Without movin C y v,

The movement of the slips is entirely independent of thev expansion and contraction of thelsprings 19, the springs spring flfrests in these mally' compress the slips an fromengagin the casing. T e slipshave the aeial for grppmghb' easing.

If it is only desired to raise the tubing, it is only necessary to pull upwardly on it`,"not being necessary to turn the tubing. When the tubing is bein raised out of the casing', the studs 21 will ie beneath the'long arms 23' of the slots; and if the tubing. should break and drop any catcher which is below the break wou d catch and su port the tubing. It is designed that the evices may be placed at the top orl bottom of the tubing and in intermediate positions, sc that one or several of them may support the entire wei ht of the' tubing. If therer are several of t e supporters'and catchers-on a string of tubing, -eachfbf the devices only has to upper dat face oftherin'g 18, er. a flange i8` I '-thatring.
