Abstract: An assembly device for binding bunched cables with a plastic fastener having a serrated tension band and a separate locking clasp including a housing for holding a wound roll of the tension band, an exit opening in one end of said housing through which the tension band can be fed, a first guide channel in the housing having an entrance end and an exit end and positioned for feeding the tension band from its roll to the exit opening and a second guide channel located in the housing above the first guide channel for feeding an endless chain of the locking clasps interconnected together by frangible webs to position the locking clasps one at a time in the exit opening so that the tension band can be passed out through the opening in the clasp.

Abstract: A clip-like, C-shaped sheet-metal nut and an assembly device therefor, the nut having a thread leg with an embossed thread portion and a clip leg having a through hole, with the forward end of the thread leg having an upwardly and forwardly inclined insertion plate. A pair of guide webs are integrally formed on the two lateral edges of the thread leg that extend upwardly at right angles to the leg with the upper edges of the webs protruding above the insertion plate and running parallel to the clip leg and with their side surfaces being in a line with the lateral edges of the clip leg to provide a substantially outer rectangular perimeter to the nut.
