A buckle, particularly for use with a strap of woven synthetic material, comprises a flat base with three apertures, 2, 3 and 4 and upstanding sides 1. A cross-piece 10 links the sides at points above the base. In the form shown in Fig. 1, a pivoted member 15 is provided and has an edge-piece 16 to clamp, under spring tension, the strap aggainst the base, thus preventing movement of the strap when it is unloaded and the frictional retaining forces caused by looping the band the apertures 2, 3 and 4 are inoperative. <IMAGE> |
