We've used the metallic ones too, but I haven't seen a PVC one yet. I'd guess that the next logical question is why?

This is something I would tend to add to my arsenal of fab mods, just to get the few additional cubic inches or hub access points. I've been collecting them for almost three decades now.

But, I've never seen the nonmetallic version, either.

does that metal colar have to be grounded if connected to a plastic fs?
Yes. 2005 NEC 250.86

I take the metal extension ring as, upon final assembly, a conductive part of an enclosure.
