I would like to see a professional set of shower sockets. All that are currently offered to plumbers are the stamped steel sets and they flex under pressure.

Mark, John, Etc.,
You're right, there probably aren't any quality shower sockets on the market. We called several plumbing supply houses and found what you said to be true. All they offer are those second rate models made from stamped steel. We can't explain why someone hasn't jumped on the opportunity to market a quality set, especially an off-shore supplier who goes after anything they can sell in the U.S. Perhaps, there's just not enough demand to justify the tooling required.

We will mention this to the guys in marketing to see if they have an interest in pursueing this.

I would pay anything for a heavy duty professional set of tub/shower sockets. I've been searching for a quality set of them for a long time with no luck.
