A fastener for a tie, strapping or the like, has a body (10) with a through bore (15) in which is a wedging member (20). The tie (19) is fixed at one end to the body, and at the other end passes around the wedging member so that, when the tie is tensioned, the wedging member is drawn in the bore into wedging engagement therewith to secure said other end portion of the tie. The member (20) has a hole (21) to receive a shear pin to hold the member (20) out of wedging engagement with the bore (15) until tension is applied to the tie (19). <IMAGE> |
