1. A wrap bracket comprising:
a strap comprising:
an intermediate portion,
a first portion extending away from the intermediate portion in a first direction, and
a second portion extending away from the intermediate portion in a second direction that is opposite the first direction, wherein the second portion is adapted to wrap around a support and engage the first portion to mount the strap to the support without a separate fastener; and
a clamp comprising:
a base secured to the intermediate portion of the strap,
a first tab extending radially outward in an initial position away from the base, and
a second tab extending radially outward in an initial position away from the base opposite the first tab, wherein the first tab and the second tab are adapted to collectively wrap around at least one elongated member to secure the elongated member to the base;
wherein the strap is formed into planar segments that are angularly spaced apart from adjacent segments to correspond with an outer surface of the support to limit rotation of the wrap bracket relative to the support.
