Abstract
A plastic or cable tie band element for clasping, holding and bundling of objects comprises a profiled band part 6 having a head part 1 joined thereto. Extending through the head part is a passage opening 8 for receiving the band part 6. A holding projection 2 is provided in the opening 8 for cooperating with the profile of the band part 6 and retaining it in the opening. Also within the opening 8 and lying opposite the holding projection is at least one guide element. The guide element comprises at least one rigidly designed knob part 3 provided with a guide track 7 for the band part 6. The guide element is located relative to the introduction direction A of the band part 6 such that it is displaced to the side and at a distance behind the holding projection 2. This causes the band part 6 to move into engagement with the holding projection 2 during insertion or attempted removal of the band part 6.
