The present invention involves a method for forming a one-piece band clamp. The band clamp is made by severing band material to a proper width, forming the band material to a desired length, removing a portion of the band to form a void in one end of the band material, inserting a deformation device into the void, and deforming the band material adjacent to the void to form a slot in the band material sufficiently wide to allow insertion of the band body. |
