ABSTRACT:
A fixing tie (10) for use in securing the ends of a protective gaiter around a constant velocity joint comprises a flexible plastics strap (11) and an adjustment clip (12). The flexible strap (11) is passed round the end of the gaiter and the free ends pass through an aperture (23) into the clip. One end (27) of the strap (11) is secured in the clip by crimping of integral tabs (17) into contact with the strap. The other end (28) of the strap is received in a split pin (22) which is rotated in a mounting (21) to tighten the strap around the gaiter end. The other end (28) is then secured in position once again by crimping of further integral tabs (18) into contact with the strap and the split pin (22) is removed.
