Abstract: Device for tying an elongate object, a cable bundle for example, having a band to be tensioned round the object and a lock connecting the band ends, which exhibits a passage orifice for at least one band end and a bore oriented transversely thereto, which contains a pin to be driven through the band located in the passage orifice. For better securing of the pin in its closed position, the pin and the bore exhibit, on their side facing the object to be tied, catch edges engaging behind each other in the releasing direction of the pin.

Abstract: A tie band, particularly for tying elongated objects, such as wiring harnesses, which consists of a strap tongue toothed on both sides, a toothed clamp wedge, and a clamp head which receives the clamp wedge and the strap tongue which is to be clamped and which has two opening surfaces which lie opposite one another and converge in the shape of a wedge, and of which in each case one is provided to support the wedge and the other to form, in conjunction with one wedge surface, a clamp gap for the strap tongue. In order to achieve greater holding power, the opening surfaces are also toothed, expediently so as to form a complementary match for the toothing of the strap tongue.
