Rubber Grommet Strips
Rubber grommet strips - also known as serrated grommet strips and adhesive grommet channels - are essential for safeguarding sharp panel edges in fabrication, electrical enclosures, and machinery. Widely used by both trade professionals and DIY enthusiasts in the UK, they provide flexible, durable protection — available in rolls up to 30m, with serrated or adhesive backing options for quick installation. Available in grey coloured TPE and sized to Fit Panel Thickness Ranges between 0.5mm and 6.4mm, they complement other Vital Parts verticals like open rubber grommets, cable glands, and adhesive-backed edge trim.
