ABSTRACT:
A snap-on clamp for securing a conduit includes an open-ended loop having complementary, interlocking clamps at each end. The clamps each include a jaw portion having teeth opposed to and engageable with the teeth on the other jaw portion and manually engageable pressure pads on each clamp for forcing the clamps toward each other. The teeth are angled to permit sliding movement toward a closed position as the manually engageable portions are forced toward each other and which are lockable against movement toward an open position. One clamp also includes an opposed tongue portion spaced from the jaw portion for engaging the opposite surface of the jaw portion on the other clamp for resiliently resisting separation of the teeth. A pressure responsive indicator is movable from a first position to a second position when the resisting force on the loop exceeds a predetermined value to provide an indication that the application of additional force to the manually engageable means will overstress the conduit.
