Gland for MK 32A commando plug

[haptism]

Anyone know what gland for is needed a MK 32A commando socket to hold a flex ??? Its got a thread for a gland (see pics) I expect its a stuffing gland if using flex but its an odd size.
Its for a commercial single phase oven 16Kw

Just buy a new plug, or are you a tight fisted sort of Guy?

Yeh I would Pete but 32a single phase plugs are not flying off the shelves

Are you sure? That looks just like a normal MK Commando plug where you tighten the black part.

Hold the grey bit and turn the black bit clockwise.

Also, read the instructions!

Don't worry about tightening the gland, it wont take long till the whole thing is melted into one nice little blob

not trying to be funny, just stating the obvious

 

[freddo]

Oh yea, I missed the 16KW part!

It might be on a 32A circuit, and will just trip instead of melting.
