Strain Relief Sealing Grommets IP67
Strain relief sealing grommets are high-performance waterproof grommet seals designed to provide dual-function protection for cables and wires passing through panel holes. These specialised sealing grommets combine mechanical strain relief with IP67 environmental protection, achieved through a two-shot injection moulding process using flexible TPE (Thermoplastic Elastomer) for sealing and rigid polypropylene for structural support. Widely used across UK electrical engineering, control panel manufacturing, machinery, outdoor equipment, and telecommunications industries, these waterproof grommet seals prevent cables from being pulled, twisted, or displaced whilst maintaining a watertight seal against dust and moisture ingress. The integrated strain relief arms provide mechanical cable support, ensuring long-term durability and performance in demanding industrial environments. Available in multiple sizes covering 4.5mm to 17mm cable diameters, these IP67 cable grommets offer superior protection for control panels, electrical enclosures, outdoor installations, and machinery applications where reliable waterproof grommet seal performance is critical.
Available Materials & Style Options:
- TPE (Thermoplastic Elastomer) inner seal for flexible waterproof sealing around cables
- Rigid polypropylene outer structure with strain relief arms for mechanical support
- Available in four colours: Black (RAL9005), Light Grey (RAL7035), White (RAL9001), and Red (RAL3000)
- Temperature resistance from -40°C to +65°C for harsh environmental conditions
- M16, M20, and M25 metric sizes to fit standard panel holes
- Panel thickness compatibility: 0.8mm to 3.5mm for versatile installation options
Available Grommet Styles:
- Larger Conical shaped grommets which provide the best seal
- Low Profile grommets which have the smallest footprint
- Strain Relief grommets where the grommet offers mechanical support to the cable
Key Features & Benefits:
- IP67 rating certified to EN 60529 - complete dust protection and waterproof to 1 metre depth for 30 minutes (for more information see our Guide to IP Ratings)
- Two-shot injection moulding construction provides superior durability and reliability
- Integrated strain relief arms prevent cable pull-through, twisting, and mechanical displacement
- Professional installation process - grommet should be installed in the panel first, then can be perforated by inserting the cable into place, which causes the grommet to grip against the cable tightly and provide the seal
- Recommended installation technique - push through in the direction of the flat section first and then through the four strain relief arms second as the arms can grip and hold the cable in place during installation
- Dual-function design combining environmental sealing with mechanical cable support
- Self-sealing design grips tightly around cable diameter for optimal waterproof performance
- Wide temperature operating range suitable for indoor and outdoor applications
- Prevents cable kinking, cuts, and abrasion damage from panel edges
Common UK Use Cases:
- Control panel and electrical enclosure cable entries in industrial manufacturing facilities
- Outdoor electrical installations requiring weatherproof cable protection including lighting systems and telecommunications
- Automotive, rail, and marine electrical enclosures where high ingress protection is essential
- Machinery and equipment applications with vibrating panels, motor housings, and junction boxes
- HVAC systems, industrial generators, and consumer appliances where cable protection extends equipment lifespan
