ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A loop type clamp includes a semi-circular portion having two free ends and a first straight line portion extending from one free end of the semi- circular portion in a direction parallel to the tangent of the semi-circular portion. A second straight line portion extends from the other free end of the semi-circular portion, and an arc portion extends from the free end of the second straight line portion. The third straight line portion extends from the free end of the arc portion and a fourth straight line portion extends at substantially right angles to the free end of the third straight line portion. The fourth straight line portion is parallel to and spaced a predetermined distance from the end of the first straight line portion to define a gap therebetween. Openings in the first and fourth straight line portions are in alignment with each other so that a fastener can extend through both the openings, the fastener tightened clamp to a member intended to be clamped by urging the first straight line portion and the fourth straight line portion together to close the gap. The arc portion comprises a means for minimizing the stress on the clamp, the arc portion being urged to be in contiguous relationship with the member intended to be clamped when the gap is eliminated.
