Abstract
A clamp for retaining electrical wires, fluid conduits or the like has restraining means adjacent to the inner ends of the clamp's legs. When the clamp is closed, the hook of a hook-shaped member adjacent to the upper leg passes through a slot adjacent to the lower leg and engages the outer surface of the clamp, thereby retaining the clamp in the closed position.
