well get a galv. box and paint it black. the Stones did in c.1965 and they're still going. :rockon:

they're the dog's nuts, mate. far easier, and quicker than banjos.

They are, but the clamping screws only just nip up on the very end of the thread of a typical 20mm SWA gland. Anyone know where you can get SWA glands with extended threaded part?

think what you are saying is that the plastic of the box is too thick. in that case, i'd gland into a galv. coupler and fit a male bush in the box with a banjo.

Don't think Wiska do singles? Probably thinking of the Piranha eath nuts?

The photo on TLC's website shows how standard glands don't really reach fully through the plate. It would be more secure if the plates were threaded, rather than relying on the locking screw and the thread in the plastic box to retain the gland.

I've seen them in cef they was in the box with all the wiska boxes not sure probably better off asking wholesalers closer to you
