Cable Grommet 6–7 mm Harting model 09000005354 for cable protection and routing

Harting Cable Grommet 6–7 mm (model 09000005354) is a purpose-designed panel feed-through accessory for protecting and routing single cables with diameters between 6 and 7 mm. It fits into cutouts of enclosures, panels or workstation furniture to provide edge protection, reduce abrasion and offer basic strain relief at cable entry and exit points. The part is aimed at professional electronics, industrial and office installations where neat routing and cable longevity are required.

Advantages

This cable grommet protects cable insulation from sharp panel edges and prevents chafing that can lead to premature wear. It helps maintain tidy cable runs through housings and control cabinets and provides a repeatable, low-profile solution for routing individual cables. The design supports easy installation and stable positioning in standard panel cutouts.

Suitable for

• Cable feed-throughs in electronics enclosures and instrument housings
• Industrial panels and control cabinets where single cables require edge protection
• Workstation and desk cable management for power or data leads with 6–7 mm diameter
• Repair or retrofit projects that need a compact, low-profile grommet

When it may not be suitable

This grommet is designed specifically for single cables with a 6–7 mm diameter; it will not correctly secure cables outside that size range. It does not provide full environmental sealing or high-level strain relief for heavy mechanical stresses, so it may not be appropriate where IP-rated sealing, vibration isolation or reinforced cable anchoring are required.

Key specifications

• Cable diameter range: 6–7 mm
• Function: edge protection and basic strain relief for panel feed-throughs
• Typical applications: electronics enclosures, industrial panels, workstation routing
• Form factor: low-profile panel insert for a single cable

How to use

Prepare a panel cutout sized for the grommet according to the enclosure manufacturer’s guidance. Push the grommet into the cutout until it seats firmly, ensuring the flange sits flush with the panel surface. Route the 6–7 mm cable through the opening and verify the grommet provides full edge contact along the cable outer jacket. For retrofit work, remove any burrs or sharp edges from the cutout before inserting the grommet to maximise protection.

What to consider before purchase

• Confirm the outer diameter of the cable is within the 6–7 mm range.
• Check panel thickness and cutout dimensions to ensure compatibility with a low-profile insert.
• Determine whether environmental sealing or enhanced strain relief is needed for your application.

Usage recommendations

Use the grommet in combination with proper cable anchoring and routing practices: avoid sharp bends near the feed-through, maintain sufficient slack for movement, and inspect periodically for wear where cables contact panel edges.
