Open Grommets - OPG019

Open Rubber Grommets - 10mm Mounting Hole Diameter - 6mm Internal Diameter - 6.5mm Height - Black EPDM | Vital Parts - OPG019

Our Open Rubber Grommets are an ideal solution for cable protection and management, offering a flexible yet durable seal around wiring systems. Designed with an open-top centre, these grommets allow cables and wires to be pushed directly through while safeguarding them from abrasion, sharp panel edges, and environmental factors.

What are Open Rubber Grommets?

Open Rubber Grommets are ring-shaped components used to protect cables and wires where they pass through panels or enclosures. Unlike closed or blind grommets, these feature an open internal hole that permits the threading of known cable diameters directly through the grommet. Manufactured from high-quality EPDM, they provide excellent resistance to weathering, UV, ozone, and a range of chemicals. These grommets are designed to absorb vibration, prevent damage, and extend the lifespan of electrical systems.

Key Features:

• Open design allows direct cable pass-through
• Excellent resistance to heat, chemicals, weather, and ageing
• Flame retardant properties for added safety
• Air-tight fit to prevent ingress of dust and moisture
• Available in sizes to fit panel thicknesses from 1mm to 9.5mm
• Cable diameter support from 5mm up to 63.5mm

They are essential in any application where cables or wires must pass through metal or plastic panels, such as in electrical cabinets, automotive dashboards, industrial equipment, and machinery panels. Their air-tight and vibration-resistant design makes them a dependable option for both indoor and outdoor environments.
