Have a couple two prong power tool cords that come apart too often. Is there a fix besides tying them together? Thanks

Some (not all) prongs are a folded over design with a slit between them. Take a flat blade pocket screwdriver and spread the slit apart to your liking.

I hadn’t thought of spreading the prongs like that but I like that better than bending them a bit as I have done.

We had a Cover that kept the Cords Plugs protected and Connected at the Nuke, was for areas hard to access during power operations, believe that Grainger had them.

Normally it is the FEMALE PLUG that has become WEAK inside and the contacts are spread and not GRABBING the male plug... Same happens with wall sockets when they get old.......... If the plug is FALLING OUT, then the female end needs replaced.
