Clasp

A clasp is a small device that helps hold things together, like a clip on a necklace or the buckle on a belt. It keeps items secure so they don't come apart easily.

Examples

• I struggled to fasten the clasp on my new backpack, but with a little practice, I finally got it to hold all my school supplies securely.
• During art class, we learned how to make friendship bracelets, using a strong clasp to keep the beads from falling off when we wear them.
