Sheet Metal Grommets
These d-shaped rubber gromets are used in sheet metal panels, primarily in
appliance applications. The d-shaped holes are stamped in the sheet metal,
and the ID hole in the rubber grommet is properly sized to accomodate a wire
or water line - the rubber grommet protects the electrical or water supply
from chaffing on the sharp edges of the stamped hole in the sheet metal. (Continued
below.)

(ref. 105090, 105166)
Custom Rubber Corp. can design grommets to fit all types
of holes in all types of materials. The rubber grommet shown in the top part
of the photo has angled sized to accomodate a non-traditional wall material.
The connections that passed through the hole in the wall still required some
insulation, and the rubber grommet also provided some sealing to limit dust
travel from one side of the wall to the other.
There are a number of companies
that supply standard rubber grommets for sheet metal applications. Custom Rubber
Corp. is available for those customers that have something non-standard about
their application. When the wall size is unusual, the hole shape is different,
or the wire/water line that passes through is an odd size, call Custom Rubber
Corp. for design assistance and manufacturing.
