Electrical: Looking for best possible 20 amp latching style twist lock adapter set?
Anyone know about the name of and/or where I can find a kind of twist lock adapter set that holds together better than standard sets, for hanging from SJO cord like in a machine shop? So far all I can find are insulgrip special plugs with this plastic sleeve that latches. I thought there was a type out there that uses a metal latch mechanism to hold the adapters together... I hope someone here can help me out. These things keep taking abuse making them not work right anymore... I really need to find something that can hold up so I can stop paying to replace them (or duct taping them together- inspector doesn't like that)

Check in the Granger catalog under strain reliefs in the electrical section. They may have what you're looking for.

Contact a local electrical contractor to obtain and install the items you need. A service electrician will know what is per code and what should be installed. A set of strain reliefs for them is advised. I suspect that the cords are too short and may need to be replaced.
