ABSTRACT:
A clamp is provided and is commonly usable for brackets having different thicknesses. The clamp 10 includes a base plate 11 to be fixed to an automotive wiring harness by taping and a box portion 12 integrally formed with the base plate 11, and an arm 13 having a lock claw 13a at its leading end projects from a rear part of the lower inner surface of the box portion 12 into a hollow portion 14 of the box portion 12. A bracket 4 projecting from a vehicle body is inserted into the hollow portion 14 of the box portion 12 and the lock claw 13a is inserted into a hole 4c formed in the bracket 4 to lock the bracket 4 and the clamp 10. Thinned and elastically deformed thickness take-up portions 15 are formed at the opposite side walls of the box portion 12. In the case that the bracket 4 being inserted into the hollow portion 14 of the box portion 12 is thick, the thickness take-up portions 15 extend to enable the insertion of the lock claw 13a into the hole 4c of the bracket 4.
