If you have a loose electrical switch or outlet, the attachment holes in the plastic electrical box are probably stripped or damaged. Instead of replacing the damaged plastic box, try using the G-Clip. 

Install the G-Clip by pressing it onto the edge of the electrical box, over the damaged hole. The G-Clip provides a new threaded mounting point to reattach your switch or outlet.

The G-Clip can be installed by most homeowners or electricians in minutes, instead of taking hours to replace a damaged electrical box. It can be installed without damaging the drywall and it can be used in multi-gang plastic boxes.

  • Features of the G-Clip

  • Designed to fit plastic electrical boxes with an approximate .09" wall thickness.

  • Turn off power at the fuse box.

  • Check for NO power at the device and remove the cover.

  • Unthread the 2 screws.

  • Pull the device away from the electrical box.

  • Center the G-Clip over the damaged hole.

  • Push the G-Clip onto the box.

  • Press down on the G-Clip and thread the screw in.

  • Install the second screw.
    Attach the cover plate.

Comments From Customers

So I just tried your product this morning and all I can say is WOW! I am a 61 year old g-grandma and not very 'tool' savvy at all. When I found your product online I decided to give it a try after watching the video on how to install them. I had just remodeled the room I needed to use them in for my grandchildren and sure didn't realize that you would have to take out some sheetrock to install a new electrical box. The loose plugs were unsightly so I started researching how to repair them. That is when I came across your website. These should be sold in every hardware store! I will be telling everyone about them. I fixed 2 outlets in about 20 minutes and am thrilled with the results. If I can do it, anyone can! Thank you for making such a great product!

Wanted to let you know I appreciate your product very much. It worked perfectly. The design allowed for the fact that the old box had to have a chunk with the broken old screw removed.

This product saved the day for my broken gang box. Electrical outlet was loose due to screw threads not having anything to grasp onto. The g-clip was pretty easy to install, just requiring a bit of patience and some pressure to force the clip into place. It took maybe 5 minutes and was much easier than replacing the gang box. Originally thought just one clip was needed but found out both needed replaced. Very happy these clips came in a 10-pack.
