A clamp device for gripping a cable or rope has two essentially semi-cylindrical jaws with longitudinal channels in their flat faces. The jaws can interlock at one end for pivotal movement relative to each other so as to bring the channels into register with each other, defining a cavity in which a rope or cable may be gripped, the jaws being clamped together by for example a screw clamp device engaging the ends of the jaws opposite the interlocking ends. The screw clamp device may serve for the attachment of hooks, eyes or shackles to the clamp device.

A clamp device for gripping a cable or rope comprising: two completely separable elongate jaws having therein longitudinally extending channels of substantially semi-circular cross-section; interlocking portions at one end of said jaws for interlocking the jaws at said end for angular movement relative to each other about a transverse axis at said one end, and releasable screw clamp means engaging the ends of the jaws opposite the said interlocking portions for holding the jaws together in a closed gripping position in which the channels in the jaws register with each other to define a cavity for receiving a cable or rope to be gripped; a plurality of ribs in each jaw extending transversely across the respective channel in the jaw, the ribs in the two jaws being spaced apart longitudinally along the respective channels and being disposed in different respecTive longitudinal positions so that the cavity defined by the channels when the jaws are closed has a sinuous shape, causing a rope or cable to adopt an undulatory shape when clamped in the cavity with the jaws closed.
