Value Collection BD9687 Rubber Grommet 11/16 in Od 25 Pack

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION BD9687 is a rubber grommet designed to protect wiring, tubing, and cables where they pass through metal panels, enclosures, or bulkheads. The grommet seats into a punched or drilled hole, cushioning the edge to prevent abrasion and insulating the opening against vibration and noise. With an outside diameter of 11/16 inches, an inside diameter of 7/16 inches, a slot diameter of 17/32 inches, and a slot width of 3/16 inches, this grommet is sized for light-duty panel work common in HVAC equipment, electrical enclosures, and plumbing control panels. Electricians, HVAC technicians, and panel fabricators install these as a standard step when routing low-voltage wiring or small-diameter tubing through sheet metal.

This grommet is suited for residential and light commercial applications where wire or tubing must pass cleanly through a knockout or drilled hole in a metal panel. Typical uses include routing thermostat wiring through cabinet walls, protecting sensor leads in HVAC air handlers, and securing small conduit or tubing runs in electrical enclosures. The slot design allows the grommet to be snapped onto an existing panel edge without full disassembly of the assembly. Sold in a pack of 25, this item supports stocking needs for service vehicles or shop inventory.

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose OEM-style rubber grommet suitable for use in electrical enclosures, HVAC equipment cabinets, plumbing control panels, and similar sheet metal assemblies requiring wire or tubing pass-through protection.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by electricians or HVAC technicians as part of panel wiring or equipment assembly work. De-energize the panel or equipment before routing any wiring through the grommet. The slot design allows the grommet to be pressed into a pre-cut hole from the face of the panel; ensure the panel material thickness is compatible with the grommet slot width before installation. Follow applicable NEC or local electrical code requirements when routing conductors through enclosures.
