Abstract
A clip is provided for holding an elongated flexible element. A typical elongated flexible element is an electrical power cord. The clip has a body member having two parallel projections. The power cord may be inserted in the slit between the projections. A power cord in the slit is pinched between the projections. The body member has sockets near each of its ends and a beaded cord has enlargements that fit in the sockets, respectively. The beaded cord can be stretched as it encircles a bundle of wire. When the enlargements on the beaded cord are inserted in the sockets the bundle of wire is held in place.
