An elastic clamping apparatus utilizes an elongated rubber-like member, having a plurality of spaced apart notches disposed along the length of each opposed lateral surface. Imbedded within the length of the elastic member is a fabric-like reinforcement member which is not extensible from the tortuous path in which it occupies when the resilient elastic member is unstretched. When stretched, the reinforcement member and the elastic member both extend in length. The end of the elastic member are fitted with a plate having a hook-like end whose outer most surface is covered with a resilient rubber-like material.
