Thomas & Betts GRPE-085-9-C Extruded Grommeting

Description:

The Thomas & Betts GRPE-085-9-C Extruded Grommeting is used to protect wires and cables from abrasion when passing through panel edges, knockouts, and sharp metal openings. Commonly installed in electrical control panels, industrial enclosures, OEM equipment, switchgear, machinery, and junction boxes where conductor insulation requires mechanical protection. Maintenance electricians, panel builders, OEM manufacturers, and system integrators use this grommet edging for new installations, equipment assembly, maintenance, and replacement of worn edge protection.
