Abstract
This device relates to a clamp constituted by a metal band wound on itself, comprising complementary tightening and/or joining elements in the vicinity of each of its ends. The band presents, in a zone preferably remote from the ends, a longitudinal slit thus defining two band sections, parallel and contiguous with respect to each other. On each of the band sections is provided at least one corrugation projecting outwardly of the clamp, each corrugation of one of the band sections being offset circumferentially with respect to each corrugation of the other band section.
Claims1
In a clamp constituted by a metal band wound on itself, comprising complementary tightening and/or joining means in the vicinity of each of its ends, the band presents, in a zone preferably remote from said ends, a longitudinal slit thus defining two band sections, parallel with respect to each other and being in contact at respective longitudinal edges formed by the slit, and, on each of said band sections is provided at least one corrugation projecting outwardly of the clamp, each corrugation of one of the band sections being offset circumferentially with respect to each corrugation of the other band section, the metal band having a constant width over its entire length.
