That was going to be my guess as well. From the top down picture it looks like the threaded portion on the new ones have a slightly bigger diameter compared to the old ones.</div>

I have a new issue with the Radiall connectors. The last five connectors I tried to attach have strain relief screws that won't tighten. I tried one from a previous order, it tightened properly. The first picture shows the strain relief attached to a connector.
The second picture is a top view of the strain relief. They look like they're made of different materials, the old ones are shinier. The last picture is a side by side view, the screw holes look like the depths are different.</div>

The screws are slightly loose in the holes, even before I try to attach them to the connector. Poor quality control?<br>
