Ceiling tile cable grommet

Rubber Grommets2 min readExplore product profiles

Dropped ceiling is a very popular architectural solution for both residential and commercial buildings. And that is the primary reason for the growing demand for ceiling tile cable grommet. Dropped ceiling is located below the structural ceiling, which means that it is necessary to carry out all installations, cables, lights and everything else from the main ceiling to the dropped ceiling. This includes a very large number of cables, especially when the dropped ceiling is implemented in commercial buildings, such as banks and similar places. Then you will need ceiling tile cable grommet and not one, but many of them.

If you don’t use ceiling tile cable grommet, everything would look very messy, because the cables would hang on all sides and with the fact that it would look messy, it wouldn’t be safe. Also, ceiling tiles would damage cables very quickly because the edges and holes on ceiling tiles are generally very sharp. Ceiling tile cable grommet has a primary role to protect cables from damage, but also from other harmful influences, such as moisture. NBR (Nitrile), natural rubber, neoprene, silicone and FKM are the types of rubber from which we most often make grommets. They differ in characteristics such as temperature range, tensile strength, rebound resilience and so on. 

When choosing a size, you need to know the maximum panel thickness, cable diameter, panel hole diameter and other sizes that will determine which sizes, but also what shape should be your ceiling tile cable grommet. There are different shapes of grommets, and each of them has its own primary and secondary purpose. Another important thing where rubber grommets can help you is cable detection. It will help you to distinguish cables by ordering grommets of different colors and then immediately know which cable goes through which hole. We can customize everything.
