Cable Retention Grommets This product enables a quick, low cost method of taking a cable through a bulkhead or panel whilst providing some measure of cable retention and sealing but without the cable gland usually associated with this type of assembly. The product, approved to IP67, is similar to a standard blind grommet but has a tapered top which, when the cable is inserted as shown below, enables a degree of retention and sealing. These grommets are not intended as a replacement for a cable gland where a positive seal and secure retention are required but, in less rigorous applications where space is restricted for cable glands, this could be the ideal D product. Manufactured in standard grey with options on light grey, H black and cream, the products are available in metric and PG sizes, to suit a range of cable diameters from 3mm to 60mm for a given panel cut-out. If you would like more information on these products, or a quotation, please contact our sales office.
