ABSTRACT:
A multi-strand cable clamp comprises a pair of opposingly disposed plate members each having an edge bent to define a jaw means for gripping a multi-strand cable, the plate members being articulated to one another for moving the jaw means between open and closed positions, and releasable coupling means interconnecting the plate members and operable to bias the jaw means to the closed position for releasably securing the cable in clamping engagement between the jaw means. The bent edge of each plate member is formed with a tooth which is inclined relative to the longitudinal axis of the cable so as to engage the cable between two successive outer strands thereof, thereby providing a positive strand engagement and preventing the plate members from pivoting about the cable as well as sliding therealong.
