Back box repair clips fix broken lugs and stripped threads in metal electrical back boxes, so sockets and switches can be screwed back tight without chasing out and replacing the box. The clip pushes on over the damaged lug and gives the M3.5 faceplate screw a fresh thread to bite into.
It is one of the most useful parts an electrician or maintenance engineer can carry: a loose socket is a common problem in older properties, and replacing a buried box means making good plaster and decoration. Isolate the circuit and prove it dead before removing the faceplate, push the clip onto the lug, then refit the accessory with a suitable length socket screw. Electrical work should be carried out by a competent person. Free UK delivery on orders over £40.
