I've purchased some kits of assorted sizes of these from tmart or 
banggood at great prices and can't tell the difference between them and 
other US sources at 2 - 3x the price.  Gotta wait a week or more for 
delivery.  Scroll to see other size choices.  I've used a lot of them 
for choke or balun j-boxes, rotator overtravel logic, etc.  All have 
stayed watertight so far.  Don't think they would work on corrugated 
hardline.
