Default Cable clamp in metal lampshade?

Hello,

I'm working on replacing a lamp holder in the shade of a stainless
steel angle lamp.

Where the flat cable passes through the side of the shade was a
plastic cable clamp which I had to cut off. I think it had been fitted
using heat, as it gripped tight with no screw or other tightening
method apparent.

The clamp seemed to grip the shade by having expanded in the entry
hole.

Is there much hope of me finding such a clamp for sale?

Or is there a heat resistant material to make one from, that's more
suitable than Sugru?
