PVC Grommet

Description

A PVC grommet is a protective ring or bushing made from polyvinyl chloride (PVC), designed to line holes in panels, metal sheets, or enclosures where cables or wires pass through. It prevents wires from damage due to sharp edges, reduces vibration, and provides insulation. Commonly used in electrical panels, machinery, automotive wiring, and consumer electronics, PVC grommets ensure safe cable routing and enhance the durability of both wires and equipment.

Features

• Made of durable PVC material.

• Provides protection against sharp edges.

• Excellent electrical insulation properties.

• Resistant to wear, abrasion, and chemicals.

• Flexible for easy installation.

• Available in various diameters and thicknesses.

• Lightweight and cost-effective.
