Are youtalking about the set screw that goes into the side of the valve end of the fitting and grips the wire?
You can get a "Collar" that goes over the stem. and has a threaded hole for a slightly longer set screw.. The problem is that though I've seen 'em. and I knwo how to make 'em.. I don't know where to buy 'em.
(Take a nut that just fits. Drill one face. Tap the hole)
Your post made me think of "cable and wire glands" which are typically used as a strain relief/moisture barrier for electrical wires..


Available in different IDs..
Still would have to make a bracket to mount the gland to the valve body.
Variety pack of 35 HERE
If you can measure the OD of the cable jacket you might be able to find a gland of slightly larger ID..
