Prevent cables from chafing with Essentra grommets and bushings

Grommets and bushings from Essentra Components are available in Canada through Gould Fasteners. Made with the same quality that the manufacturer is known for, these grommets and bushings are specially designed to soften sharp edges and cutouts to prevent cables from chafing. They have many features which make these units essential solutions for a wide range of applications that incorporate cables.

Key features

Essentra carries several types of grommets. They are available in both plastic and metal versions, in up to 100-foot long continuous rolls that can be cut to the user’s desired length. Twelve-inch long grommet strips comply with the NASM21266 military standard. Continuous grommet versions are available with glue in the centre to better hold it in place without epoxy, and they come with a straight profile for a long edge. Serrated versions, on the other hand, are available for cutouts. Another option is flexible hole grommets, which are easily installed in pre-drilled holes.

Snap-in bushings are made from nylon, and are designed to easily snap into a hole. These units are UL approved.
