Electro Base Nosegs Gala E-E.4129_1 16 mm 80A rubber grommet

Electro Base Nosegs Gala E-E.4129_1 16 mm 80A rubber grommet is a molded elastomer part designed to protect cables, hoses and small components where they pass through panels, metal sheets or plastic housings. The grommet fits into a 16 mm diameter hole and provides a cushion against abrasion and vibration while creating a controlled sealing edge that reduces chafing and ingress of dust. The material’s 80A hardness offers a balance of flexibility and firmness for repeated mechanical stress in electrical, automotive and light industrial installations.

Advantages

This rubber grommet provides effective protection against mechanical wear and vibration, extending the service life of routed cables and conduits. Its precise outer shape ensures a snug fit in 16 mm openings for simple, tool-free installation. The 80A hardness grade maintains elastic recovery and resists deformation under compression, while the elastomer surface reduces sharp-edge contact and minimizes noise transmission.

Suitable for

• Protecting electrical wiring passing through panels and control boxes
• Sealing cable entry points in automotive door panels and engine compartments
• Routing hoses and small tubes in household appliances and industrial machines
• Reducing abrasion and vibration in equipment enclosures and junctions

Key specifications

• Material: rubber elastomer
• Nominal hole diameter: 16 mm
• Hardness: 80A (Shore A)
• Function: cable and component protection, vibration damping, edge sealing
• Typical applications: electrical, automotive, industrial assemblies

How to use

Select a panel opening or drill a neat 16 mm hole. Push the grommet into the opening so the flange seats flush against the panel surface; the part’s tapered profile and flexible lips will compress and hold it securely. Route the cable, hose or tube through the central aperture, ensuring the conductor is lubricated if necessary to ease insertion and avoid overstretching. Inspect that the grommet sits evenly and that no sharp edges protrude into the protected area.

Usage recommendations

Install in clean, deburred holes and avoid exposure to aggressive chemicals or temperatures beyond the material’s recommended range. For high-vibration or dynamic movements, periodically check the grommet for wear and replace if signs of cracking, permanent deformation, or significant material loss appear.
