Abstract: A resilient strap, having each end gradually turned back on itself, forming U-shaped ends, is provided with a concave bend in the lateral surface of the strap between the U-shaped ends. A handle element having an oblong-like opening is secured to the opposed convex surface of the strap. In use, the U-shaped hook-like ends secure portions of the opposed rims of a container such as a metal can, thereby providing a clamping handle attachment for the container.
