Abstract:
A cord-retaining fastener for holding bundled cords, wires, hoses, cords, ropes, cables, or other elongated articles is provided and includes a flexible elongated webbed strap of sufficient length to extend around the bundled cord, a narrow elongated rectangular sleeve, and a buckle or other strap-end-retaining device. The rectangular sleeve captively receives two portions of an intermediary segment of the elongated webbed strap to form a fastener-attaching loop, which is positioned around an end of the cord to releasably affix the fastener to the cord. The buckle is secured near a first end of the webbed strap to frictionally engage a second end of the webbed strap, forming a cord-binding loop to encircle and releasably hold the bundled cord. Thus the cord-retaining fastener conveniently remains attached near the end of the cord via the fastener-attaching loop, ready to buckle around the coils of the cord when it is bundled.
