Gardner Bender GHG-1538 Vinyl Wire Grommet 3/8 in 5-pack

Product Description

The GARDNER BENDER GHG-1538 is a flexible black vinyl snap-in grommet designed to protect wire insulation and cordage from sharp steel edges at panel knockouts, enclosure holes, and similar penetrations. Sized for 3/8 inch openings, it snaps into place without tools and forms a smooth contact surface between metal edges and conductors. This pack contains 5 grommets. Electricians, auto technicians, and sheet metal fabricators reach for this type of grommet wherever unprotected wire routing through bare metal creates an abrasion or cut-through risk.

Common installation scenarios include steel electrical boxes, HVAC sheet metal panels, automotive firewalls, control enclosures, and light-gauge fabricated assemblies. The grommet seats in a punched or drilled hole and holds by snap tension. It is suited for both new construction wiring and retrofit service work where existing holes lack edge protection. The 5-pack format supports multi-hole jobs or stocking a service vehicle.

Key Features

• Flexible black vinyl construction conforms to hole edges and resists cracking
• Snap-in design installs without adhesives or additional hardware
• Protects wire insulation and cording from abrasion against sharp steel
• Fits 3/8 inch holes in steel boxes, sheet metal, and auto firewalls
• Pack of 5 grommets for multi-point installations or service stock

Compatibility

Designed as a snap-in edge-protection grommet for 3/8 inch holes in steel electrical enclosures, sheet metal panels, and similar light-gauge metal assemblies.

Installation Notes

De-energize all circuits before routing conductors through any enclosure or panel. Verify the hole diameter matches the grommet seat size before snapping in place. A standard punch or step bit produces a clean hole edge that seats the grommet securely. Follow applicable NEC requirements for conductor protection at enclosure entries.
