Whether you want to create a cleaner aesthetic in your home or whether you want to tidy up your working place, cable management is the answer. However, proper cable management requires wires to be run through walls, desks, floors, ceilings, etc. All of the above numbered surfaces are rough and sharp on the edges which could ultimately damage or even completely cutt of your cabled. Rectangular grommets are the answer to that problem.What is a grommet? A rectangular grommet is a rectangular ring that can be applied onto a hole of a wooden, metal, or any other kind of surface. These grommets are specifically designed and molded from rubber so that they can stay in place when inserted into the hole. Keep in mind, grommets can also be made from silicone or plastic.

Once the hole is secured with a rectangular grommet, the cables running through those holes will no longer get damaged, chafed, or cut off on the rough edges of the hole. Additionally, these same rectangular grommets can also be used to cover up sharp edges. For example, desks, doors, walls, sheet metal fencing, etc. Which material the rectangular grommets are going to be made of is entirely up to you. You can customize anything from material, colors, hardness and temperature rating. Whichever material or shape you go for, you will be getting great dust and water resistance which is quite the benefit. We’re specifically talking about rectangular shapes, but remember that protection grommets can easily be customized in different shapes according to your needs, engineering drawings or samples. 

To put it simply, rectangular or any kind of shape grommets have their industrial and home purposes. They are especially important in the industrial sector to reduce the costs of replacing, buying and repairing cables because of damaged caused by sharp edges and rough holes.
