Value Collection BDC87694 Rubber Grommet 1-5/16 in Od

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION BDC87694 is a rubber grommet designed to protect wiring, cables, and tubing where they pass through punched or drilled panel openings. With a 1-5/16 inch outside diameter, an 11/16 inch inside diameter, and a 7/16 inch overall thickness, this grommet seats firmly in a panel cutout and forms a cushioned barrier between the metal edge and the conductor or hose routed through it. The 1 inch slot diameter and 1/8 inch slot width allow the grommet to be installed over an existing cable run without disconnecting the termination. Electricians, HVAC technicians, and panel fabricators rely on this style of grommet to meet wiring protection requirements on sheet-metal enclosures and equipment cabinets.

This grommet is suited for residential and light commercial applications where cables, low-voltage wiring, or small-diameter tubing penetrate metal panels, chassis walls, junction boxes, or equipment housings. The slotted design makes it practical for retrofit installations where the wire or cable is already in place. It is commonly used in electrical panel work, HVAC equipment wiring, and general sheet-metal fabrication. Each package contains 25 grommets, making this item appropriate for production runs or service trucks that need consistent stock of common hardware.

Key Features

• Slotted design allows installation over pre-run cables without disconnecting ends
• Rubber construction cushions and insulates wire and cable against sharp panel edges

• Sold in a 25-piece package to support service and production quantity needs

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-install grommet for sheet-metal panels and enclosures requiring a 1-5/16 inch OD slotted rubber grommet with a 1 inch slot diameter and 1/8 inch slot width.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by electricians or HVAC technicians as part of panel wiring or equipment assembly work. De-energize all circuits before routing conductors through any panel opening. For slotted grommets, press the grommet into the panel cutout until the flange seats flush on both sides before pulling the cable through the slot. Verify that the panel cutout diameter matches the grommet OD to ensure a secure, rattle-free fit.
