The present invention is an improved composite clamp having a greatly reduced profile, eliminating most of the block portion of the prior art clamp to substantially reduce the weight. The composite clamp of the present invention can be appropriately described as a "composite strap clamp". The clamping sections are molded in an arcuate shape without the presence of block material. To provide high strength, reinforcing fibers comprising structural woven carbon fiber cloth are used together with a thermoplastic, thermoset, or thermosettable polymer. Continuous reinforcing fibers extend longitudinally through the clamping sections to provide high strength and low delamination.
