Value Collection IBNRG-19-BKN Rubber Grommet Buna-n

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION IBNRG-19-BKN is a Buna-N rubber grommet designed to protect wiring, tubing, and hoses passing through metal panels, enclosures, and chassis. The grommet seats into a punched or drilled hole, cushioning the edge contact and preventing abrasion or chafing on conductors and lines. It measures 1-1/16 inches in outside diameter and 3/8 inches thick, with a 1/2-inch inside diameter to accommodate the routed material. The slot measures 13/16 inches in diameter with a 1/8-inch slot width, allowing the grommet to snap into the panel opening without additional fasteners. Hardness is rated at 45-55 Shore A. Electricians, HVAC technicians, and panel fabricators commonly install this type of grommet during rough-in and equipment assembly work.

This grommet is suited for use in electrical enclosures, control panels, HVAC equipment cabinets, and light-gauge sheet metal applications where wiring or small-diameter tubing passes through a panel edge. The black Buna-N construction provides resistance to oils, fuels, and common shop fluids, making it appropriate for both indoor mechanical rooms and equipment cabinets. It is sold in packages of 50 units, which supports service stock and panel shop use.

Key Features

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or service grommet for use in electrical enclosures, control panels, and sheet metal equipment housings requiring a 1-1/16-inch OD panel opening.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by electricians or HVAC technicians during panel fabrication or field service. Verify the panel knockout or drilled hole matches the 1-1/16-inch outside diameter before seating the grommet. Press the grommet firmly into the opening until the slot lip seats flush against both faces of the panel. De-energize all circuits in the enclosure before routing conductors through the installed grommet, in accordance with NFPA 70 (NEC) lockout/tagout procedures.
