Description

This model is to repair electrical back box  damaged tabs/ lugs. Ever put that screw in and it threaded?

Once this happens the screws will never tighten up properly again.

 

My solution requires a M3.5 hex nut to be slotted in the lower section, Drill out the Tab/ Lug to allow the M3.5 electrical screw to pass through it, Then push the repair unit over the Tab/Lug to line up with the drilled out hole, put your new screw in and tighten it all up. if loose put a little super glue on to keep in place while screwing it up.

 

I printed mine in PLA and it feels solid.
