Default help identifying a prodct

Hey all, just wondering if anyone can tell me what the fitting used here is called. I am looking at the black fitting that the bracket is attached to. It appears to slip and tighten over the clear pipe and have a nut on the bottom that a bracket could be attached to.

I figure it is a common part as I have seen them used in several places.

thanks in advance for help

It's a probe holder. About 10 bucks, last time I bought one.

Its usually a type of cord grip that they use as the probe holder.

Yeah.. Its a strain relief.
Any electronics shop will have tons of sizes of them. They are generally used to secure cables.
