Strain Relief Piece, Threaded Cord Grip - Great For Cloth Covered Wire! 1/8 IPS Male Threads
These handy little threaded plastic cord grips are a great safety feature to add to your hanging pendants and other weight-bearing light fixtures. They thread into the base of any standard light socket (or use a nut to fasten them to anything, like a ceiling canopy mount) and when you screw on the cap, they tighten up onto your cord: holding the weight off of your wire connections inside your socket or ceiling canopy. No more struggling to tie knots or use cumbersome crimps inside your socket!

Despite the description stating its compatibility with all 18 gauge cords, this strain relief does not fit the 18/3 cloth covered round wire that I ordered to use it with.

Reply: Hi Jess, sorry to hear about the issue, I have just done a spot check on the strain reliefs and they all seem to fit well with our 3-wire cords, maybe it was a bad piece? What color strain relief did you buy? We can refund the price or send you a new one, no problem, just let us know, we're here to help!! -Paul, Snake Head Vintage
