Description
This rubber grommet cushions and protects openings where wiring or components pass through panels, helping prevent chafing and reducing vibration for quieter operation. It's a simple replacement that restores proper fit where the original grommet is worn or missing. What it does:
- Protects wires and cables from abrasion where they pass through sheet metal or plastic openings
- Reduces vibration and rattling caused by loose or degraded mounting points
- Helps maintain correct component spacing and fit
- Common symptom: visible cracking, deformation, or a loose fit around a hole
- Common symptom: rattling or chafing noises near the damaged area
What's included:
Install notes:
- Disconnect power to the appliance before working on panels or wiring
- Installation may require removing the access panel or trim to reach the mounting hole
- Press the grommet into the opening until fully seated; ensure wires sit in the grommet channel without pinching
- Inspect surrounding wiring and fasteners for wear while replacing the grommet
