Grommets are accessories that are applied to shield and keep different types of appliances safe, including machinery, electronics, and even parts of our cars. They are installed inside a previously made hole, and the reason why we put them is to safe keep both the appliance where the hole is made, as well as the lines that pass through it. The watertight wire grommets are one of the main types that are used to prevent damage and snapping of the wire, and they are mainly made of rubber and silicone. 

The difference between the watertight wire grommets and some of the other models is that these units will not get damaged when they come in contact with water, and they will also prevent wetness from penetrating inside the appliances. Note that alongside this, these accessories are dustproof as well, which means they are the best choice if you need to install them on a part of the machinery that will be exposed to different types of weather conditions. Because of this, they are especially used in the automotive industry, and they provide an additional barrier between the equipment and the water or dust.

The watertight wire grommets come in different shapes and sizes, and you can choose the right one for you depending on the unit’s physical properties. You should pick the right model depending on its temperature range, especially if you plan on installing them on a device that will be exposed to extreme weather, along with the tensile and tear strength, and rebound and abrasion resistance. Note that most of these units come with a long neck, so you can easily install them in a device that is wider. You can also pick an accessory that has a shorter neck, and you can choose between round or oval shape, and you can also get your watertight wire grommets custom made.
