A clasp apparatus including two pairs of cantilever flanges which provide resilient cantilever action to resiliently grip and clasp a length of strand material inserted therebetween. The flanges are provided with slicing edges which slice and partially penetrate into the strand material. The flanges are further mounted on webs spanning between uprights which themselves are deformable in resilient cantilever action for applying compression on the gripped and clasped strand material. Alternatively, the uprights may be provided with stiffeners for reducing the cantilever action thereof. The first pair of flanges cooperate with the second pair of partially compress a longitudinal portion of the strand material spanning between the pairs of flanges. |
