Abstract
A cable strain relief for mounting in a supporting wall aperture or the like is provided comprising a grommet and a rotatable clamping means received in said grommet. The grommet and clamping means have aligned cable-receiving passageways. The clamping means includes a flexible clamping band detachably anchored at a distal end to the grommet, and a movable, opposed proximal end integral with said clamping means which is rotatable by said clamping means about the periphery of a cable passing through said grommet and clamping means. In a modified construction two clamping bands each of which has axially offset, opposed portions are provided which simultaneously engage the cable periphery when actuated by the clamping means.
