Abstract
A one-piece tie of synthetic plastic material is disclosed having a flat head through which the strap passes, after looping around a bundle of cables for example, for its serrations to interlock with the teeth of a pawl which is pivoted at one end. The strap is introduced through the head from the pivoted end of the pawl, and increasing back-tension in the strap, after the tie is tied, causes the strap to pivot the pawl so as more firmly to grip the strap.
