Abstract: A fixing system for fixing a cord-like material to a support comprises a base piece for application to the support and a housing plate for the cord-like material. A spacer for connecting the housing plate to the base piece is provided. In the first connected state, the spacer and the housing plate are connected to each other such as to be displaceable relative to each other in the direction of the cord-like material and, in a second connected state, the spacer is connected to the housing plate and the base piece and the housing plate is fixed relative to the spacer. The fixing system is very user-friendly.

Abstract: A rail which can be bound, by means of a strap, to an elongate object, in particular a cable harness or a line, and has a bearing surface, which is intended to rest against the object, and a binding surface , which is directed away from the bearing surface and accommodates the strap. The binding surface has a plurality of protrusions which are compliant in the direction transverse to this surface. A strap arranged at any desired location of the binding surface is positioned transversely over one or more protrusions, in which case these protrusions are pressed down. Adjacent protrusions which have not been pressed down are located on one side and/or the other, and these resist the lateral displacement of the strap.
