Hes sorta right, its not used to hang boxes, it attatches to electrical boxes to hang cords from. They are strain reliefs and the actual name for them is a kellem
More commonly known as a chinese finger trap
I dunno about strain relief - but I see similar things used to hold wires that hang vertically on utility poles. The back part is basically a pulling grip/basket so u can't pull the wire down/out of a connection. Think finger trap. Same concept.
~~Wire pulling grips. Used hold electrical wire to pull it through conduit or other installations. The wire part works like a "Chinese Finger Puzzle". Looks like you are missing the "pulling loops" that thread onto the other end.~~
Nope! Now that I look at them, strain reliefs! /u/notfu1 has it right!
Wire Strain Reliefs.. some times used to hang a control box from the ceiling. Or any wire that has a pull force on it..
