Abstract

A band clamp comprises a band for holding a long member and a lock that has a latching pawl provided at one end of the band, for effecting a lock when the band is wound about the outer periphery of the long member. An engagement part for engaging the latching pawl is formed at only one location in the longitudinal direction of the band, and the position of that latching part is a position that establishes the length of the winding of the band about the long member at a prescribed length.
