Abstract
Apparatus for clamping a cable, wiring or tubing, includes a pair of straps each made from a springlike material and each having a flat portion and a looped portion extending from the flat portion in mating relationship to the looped portion of the other strap to define a clamp. Each of the looped portions has an open configuration at one end for a sliding relationship between the looped portions to define the relative closure of the clamp. The looped portion on one of the straps may extend from the flat portion in a clockwise direction and the looped portion on the other strap may extend from the flat portion in a counterclockwise direction. The flat portions on the straps are disposed relative to each other for clamping to provide for a closure of the clamp. Means such as holes are disposed in the flat portions of the straps for providing for a clamping of the flat portions to obtain a closure of the clamp against the cable, wiring or tubing. Cushion means made from a resilient material are disposed on the looped portions of the straps to facilitate the fixed disposition of the clamp on the cable, wiring or tubing. The cushion means may be slit along its length to provide for a fixed disposition of the clamp on the cable without binding.
