Strain Relief Bushings For Non Round Holes
Strain relief bushings for non round holes are snap-fit cable management components designed to protect and secure wires as they pass through square or rectangular panel cut-outs. These are sometimes called non-round panel bushings or snap-in cable bushings and are essential for stopping cables from being damaged by sharp panel edges. They are made from high-quality Nylon 6/6, offering durability, resistance to abrasion and chemicals, and compliance with UL94 V-2 flame ratings.
These bushings are widely used in the UK for electrical control panels, industrial equipment, HVAC units, commercial appliances, and white goods manufacturing. Their primary benefit is quick, tool-free installation, ensuring a secure hold on cables, preventing movement and reducing strain on connectors. Available in sizes to suit a wide range of cable diameters (5.6 mm to 10.6 mm) and panel thicknesses (0.8 mm to 4 mm), these bushings help maintain safe, neat cable entry points. Both black and white options are available, depending on application requirements.
