ABSTRACT:
A one-piece plastic clip with broad jaws for gripping an object over a long area. The clip has arms with an upper and lower surface and ends with a plurality of complementary offset teeth. In unstressed condition, the clip is not under tension. When kinetic energy is stored in the clip, the arms are pinched together and the teeth intermesh and cross over at an angle forming broad jaws. The jaws grip the object between the angled upper surfaces of the arms below the cross over point of the teeth.
