ABSTRACT:
An assembly for clamping and retaining a cable in attached relation to a utility pole. The assembly generally includes a block portion and clamping member pivotally and slidably connected thereto. The block member includes a rear end having a bored hole formed therein, a recessed portion formed in its upwardly facing surface, and a pair of spaced apart tongues vertically spaced from the recessed portion. The clamping member includes a body portion and a pair of spaced apart forks extending downwardly therefrom which are movable between engaged and disengaged relation to the recessed portion. A pivot pin passes through the body of the clamping member and the tongues of the block member. The hole formed through the clamping member's body is oval in shape so as to permit not only pivotal movement thereof with respect to the block member, but also sliding movement. The forks and tongues are shaped so as to receive and clamp a cable thereinbetween.
