x5 Back Box Repair Clips Replace Damaged Threads or Lugs on Installed Electrical Metal Back Pattress Boxes

Product Information

A functional but fiddly repair which was time-consuming and, as is often the case, the damaged socket was the one in the least accessible position. I recently undertook an EICR at a property where I removed a socket front in the kitchen and, in doing so, discovered the threaded lug at the side of the metal back box had sheared off. Until now the only proper solution was to suffer the time and expense of re-installing the back box. It has been designed for use on metal back boxes from 25mm deep upwards, though you may need longer 3.

A badly installed electrical back box can result in a socket faceplate that is too high, too low or sloping. The competition was very tight, but Back Box Repair Clip came out top, a simple yet very effective product and a 100% worthy winner! Add this small, lightweight product to your toolbox to save the arduous and time-consuming task of ripping out the problem box and prevent the added expense of re-plastering, re-tiling, re-painting etc. After all, a big oven switch, for example, can take some pressure, so I was sure the clip would just slip off eventually.

The current solution — replacing the back box just because of a stripped lug — is time-consuming and costly. After removing all snags from the inside of the back box, the clip simply pushes on with ease, and due to the tensioning and calibration of the clip, it will remain firmly and securely in place. The larger REBBAL lug can be used on boxes 35mm and 47mm deep, and has been designed when side entry is used. I’ll admit to being slightly dubious about whether a clip of this size would be able to take any load.
