Cable grommets for secure cable management
Cable grommets for strain relief, bend protection and grommet edging
Flexible grommets to suit your application
Sharp edges, constant mechanical stress, chemicals or environmental influences: There are many factors that can damage cables.Cable grommetshelp tominimise these risksand toprotect the cabling.
For example, if cables have to be routed through small round holes,snap in cable grommetshelp prevent abrasion. In the case of larger, or unshaped cut-outs withsharp edgesor straight edges, the use of so-calledgrommet stripsis a good choice.
Another form of cable grommets are those that are inserted into cable ends. Thesegrommets relieve cables from strain. Other cable entry sleevesprotect the cable from bending or kinking– so calledanti-kink grommets. And some cable grommets combine both bend protection and strain relief in one.
No matter which cable protection is the best for your specific application, we have the right cable grommet solution for you.
Snap in cable grommets
Open grommets to protect against chafing
Wherever cables have to pass through holes, the use ofsnap in cable grommetsis a good choice.
These open grommetsprotect the cables and wires optimally from abrasion on sharp edges.
Further benefits:
- Additional strain relief
- Flexible and easy to process
- High chemical and environmental resistance
Cable pass through grommets for edge protection are available in the colorsgrayandblackfor edges with wall thickness from 0.8 to 6.0 mm.
They are available in bothcircularandovalformats. The latter are also calledoblong grommets, suitable for flat cables or ribbon cables.
They are made of PVC orflame retardant PVC-FR.
Grommet strips for sharp-edged panel edges and cut-out sections
Solid grommet edging for sharp panel edges
TheEdgeGuard flexible grommetprovidesoptimum protection for cableswhen routed along sharp-edged areas.
Thanks tosoft, flexible PVC, this cable management grommet iseasy to applyandfits the edge perfectly.
In addition to the cable protection aspect, EdgeGuard is also adesign solutionfor attractively covering edges, available in three different variants:
Slotted grommet edging for sharp cutouts
TheFlexiform edge protectorfor cables is often used for sheet metal cut-outs. However, thisflexible grommetalso ensuressafe and material-friendly cable routingat any otherhard-edged cut-outs, e.g. in chassis or device construction.
The advantages at a glance:
- Tight-fitting, slotted moulded rail
- Very flexible, bendable material (PTFE)
- Easy and safe installation without adhesive
- Excellent protection at high temperatures
Cable grommets for strain relief and bend protection
Cable entry sleeves
Cable grommets for strain reliefprotect the wire or electrical connection from damage when pulled.
Benefits at a glance:
- Flexible and simple to install
- Ensure high tensile strength
- Very resistant to chemicals and environmental influences
Additionally, there areanti-kink grommets, used, for example, atoutletsasmechanical protectionfor cables and wires.
Some grommetseven combine both properties: they relieve the cable and protect it from kinking.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the purpose of a cable grommet?
A cable grommet typically is around edged ringinserted into a panel holeto protect pass through cablesfromchafing and abrasionas well as fromenvironmental impactsor simply assuring afirm gripof the wire or cable.
Sleeved cable grommetsalso avoid the cable getting kinkedor are used to ensure proper strain relief.
How to install wire grommets?
An open cable grommet issimply pushed through the panel hole by handuntil it snaps firmly in place.
Theflexible materialallows the grommet to be squeezed for ease of installation.
After installation, the edged designsecures the grommet from falling out.
如何选择正确的打开电缆环吗?
Choosing the right grommet is requiring3 basic dimensions. Your cable diameter, the diameter of the panel hole and the panel thickness.
FHdimension = panel hole size
H2dimension = panel thickness
Ddimension = the hole size of the cable grommet, depending on the diameter of the cable to be passed through it
Two complementary parameters are theHdimension (height) and theODdimension (outer diameter), which describe the overall size of the cable grommet.
