How do you attach your perch rods to your pm house? I have some plastic cable clamps that appear to be wearing, so thinking about changing over to stainless steel. Any other suggestions?

I have a Trendsetter 16 compartment. It came with 4 cable clamps for 2 rods and I want to add 2 more rods. The house is only 3 years old and the cable clamps are wearing. I did add 2 perch rods but zip tied them.

I just use zip ties, but anything that holds them in place will work..
