This is the Evoges EVOM35STUD/10 M3.5 x 35mm Brass Extension Studs – Pack of 10 for Extending Switch & Socket Screws available at SparksDirect.co.uk for the best price.
The M3.5 x 35mm Brass Extension Studs (Pack of 10) are essential hardware components used to extend screws in electrical accessories such as socket outlets, light switches, dimmers and accessories where the existing screws are too short — for example, when fitting accessories over deep back boxes, mounting into thick mounting plates, or accommodating spacers and trims.
Made from brass, these extension studs provide good strength, corrosion resistance, and conductivity — properties that make them suitable for use in domestic and commercial electrical installations. Whether you’re an electrician, installer, or DIY enthusiast, having a set of extension studs in your toolkit can make installations cleaner and more secure without resorting to improvised fixes.

Who Can Install It
These extension studs can be fitted by qualified electricians, competent DIYers, or experienced installers familiar with electrical accessory installation. They simply replace or screw onto the existing M3.5 screws in a switch or socket accessory — but ensure that the electrical supply is isolated before working inside any electrical accessory.
Installation Tip:
When extending screws on switches or sockets, always ensure the accessory still sits flush to the wall plate and that screws are tightened securely — over-tightening brass studs into steel threaded holes can cause thread wear over time.
