ABSTRACT:
A tensioning strap for securing one or more elongate cables, pipes, hoses or similar objects has an elongate, flexible strap part which is provided with arresting elements and a tensioning lock which is affixed at one end of the strap part and is arranged to hold the strap part which is formed as a noose around and engages the objects. In order to form bundles of objects which are sensitive to pinching and have different overall bundle cross-sections without any risk of pinching or reductions in cross-section of the objects, a blocking element is provided in the region of the tensioning lock which comes into blocking engagement with the strap part and prevents further closing of the noose which is formed by the strap part when the strap part surrounds the objects in a closely abutting manner. The blocking engagement between the blocking element and the strap part is brought about by the blocking element and the strap part moving toward one another as a result of a force exerted by the objects on the strap part or the blocking element.
