ABSTRACT:
A buckle having a device for gripping a length of webbing, comprising a buckle body formed from two side arms connected by an end arm. A locking device is connected to the ends of the side arms. A first transverse bar is mounted between the two side arms. A second transverse bar having a gripping surface is mounted between the first transverse bar and the end arm, and is vertically offset from the first transverse bar. A gripping cam is pivotally mounted between the two side arms and in between the transverse bars. The gripping cam has a gripping surface that contacts the second transverse bar and an opposite free end. A length of webbing threaded between the second transverse bar is securely held between the gripping surfaces of the transverse bar and gripping cam until the free end of the cam is pressed downward. If the cam breaks, the webbing is still held in place by the two transverse bars.
