ABSTRACT:
A system for releasably restraining a first element and a second element is disclosed. The containment system uses a tensioner to urge a clamp into contact with the first element and with the second element, and a release selectively operates the tensioner to remove the clamp from contact with the first and second elements to permit relative movement therebetween. The clamp is particularly useful in maintaining a gap between the first and second elements which permits relative movement between the first and second elements after the clamp is removed.
