PCT No. PCT/NO91/00112 Sec. 371 Date Feb. 19, 1993 Sec. 102(e) Date Feb. 19, 1993 PCT Filed Aug. 19, 1991 PCT Pub. No. WO92/03682 PCT Pub. Date Mar. 5, 1992.A clamp for tightening a strip of arbitrary length around an object. The clamp includes tightening mechanisms which attach to the ends of the strip. The mechanisms are adapted so that the inner surface of a cup-shaped element of one mechanism receives the free threaded end of a tightening bolt which is pivotably mounted in a rotatable cross-peg extending through ears of the other tightening mechanism. One end of the strip is selectively securable to the clamping mechanism by a locking device having an aperture and bendable ears. The strip is locked by being passed through the aperture, folded back on itself, folded forward on itself, held by bendable ears crimped over the folded strip, and again folded back on itself and held by a second set of bendable ears crimped over the folded strip. The clamp is particularly useful for tightening a hose around an object without forming a bulge in the hose thereby preventing local leakage.
