Abstract
An easy to use, inexpensive fastener device that is generally shaped like the letter “H,” or similar cross-connected structure, which is used for bundling multiple items in conjunction with a closed loop band. The multi-purpose fastening device has a simple structural design such that a continuous length of cord or elastic may be looped around one of the uprights of the “H,” wrapped around a bundle of items, and then looped around the other upright of the “H,” thus holding the items together. The clip may be constructed of plastic, metal, or other rigid material and may be of varying size, thickness, and tensile strength, depending on the weight to be supported.
