Abstract
A grip block for holding and immobilizing elongated cylindrical members, such as cables, has a base member having a central axis and first and second pivot arms, one mounted on each side of the axis. An actuating member has a body which has two or more cable receiving channels therein which are oriented parallel to the central axis and depending actuating pins for actuating the pivot arms to force one or more cables into the discrete channels. The base and actuating member are held together by means of studs within a splice closure or by both in conjunction with a mounting bracket.
