Outlet spacers 48 piece twist-apart switch and receptacle pack

Outlet spacers are thin plastic shims used to prevent electrical outlets and light switches from sinking or loosening over time. This 48-piece set includes 12 strips of red spacers, with 4 pieces per strip, providing adequate quantity for multiple installations throughout your home.

Each spacer measures 0.8 × 0.8 inches with a thickness of 0.15 inches. The stackable twist-apart design allows you to layer pieces to your desired thickness without needing tools to separate them. The thin plastic joints tear apart easily by hand, and spacers compress slightly to ensure a perfect fit.

Installation requires only a screwdriver. Remove the outlet or switch plate, stack spacers behind the mounting screw to the required thickness, then tighten the screw. This approach is more environmentally friendly than traditional cylindrical spacers and prevents material waste.

The spacers effectively stabilise outlets and switches that have shifted due to long-term use or external pressure, keeping fixtures level and secure. The economical bulk quantity makes replacement and future maintenance straightforward across multiple outlets in your home.

Start by identifying outlets or switches that need stabilising, then install spacers as required.
