if you've got a link to them that would be great.

i believe the ones i have always used are Gardner Bender brand, and i thought they used 3m adhesive.I think that might be brand, maybe age too? I'll hafta look at what I have. I got some one time that were sub par, but ever since I've used all sizes of the same brand, and the adhesive tape on these is ridiculous. When you do need to take one off, you have to pry it so hard you go thru the plastic before it comes off, and you peel from the middle where you ripped thru the plastic. Heat, cold, vibration, damp conditions on fiberglass in a boat, never had one with the good adhesive fail. It actually ****es me off more often because they are such a btch to remove. They take paint off the firewall, and if you don't soak them first, you will scratch the crap out of your boat removing them. I think the plastic part is the same for most brands, just different adhesive tape, i'll look and see if the good ones say 3M or whatever on the peel off. I have used a couple on my quad, and I run that thing completely under the water so deep I hafta stand on the rack to keep the back tires from floating, and they haven't let go yet. All the factory installed clamps and wire guides didn't last long once I put a snorkel on it, but these are more likely to cause me grief because I need to remove one than one falling off allowing a wire to get cooked. They are such a dumb little thing, but I don't know how I never knew about them until a year ago, I was shooting screws thru everything like you were saying.i have used a ton of those on projects and have had mixed results with the adhesive/foam-- in cases of stressing the connection, the foam can tear apart from the adhesive.. so i always run a screw through the middle just to be sure.
