A clamp is disclosed including a flexible elongate band having spaced apart ends, one end having a plurality of slots formed therein and the opposite end having a screw assembly disposed thereon, wherein the screw assembly includes a rotatable screw mounted in a housing. Rotation of the screw urges an outer surface of one end of the band to slideably travel along an inclined inner surface and thence along the inner surface of the other end of the band for constricting and expanding the clamp.
