Abstract
Abstract A band strap element for wrapping around and binding and holding an object, comprises a bearing zone 1 for the object to be held including a support part 2 and a strap-form binding element 3, with an engaging or gripping part 4, which can be joined detachably to a catch element 5. A fastening zone 6 joins the support zone 1 and serves for the fastening of the strip element to a support. The support part 2 is arched and is connected through a guide stay 7 with an outer shell 8. The outer shell 8 has an outer wall carrying the catch element 5, which is comprised of several saw-tooth profiles 9. The engaging element 4 is a catch projection 10 at the front end of the strap-form binding element 3. In the mounted condition, a partial zone of the binding part 3 is laid into the interspace 11 formed by the guide stay 7 which extends transversely between the support part 2 and the outer shell 8.
