Wire grommets


Recommended Posts

Where do you guys purchase you wore grommets from? I need a couple for 1/0 xs power xp flex wire to run through my firewall. Any reason the grommets I see on sonicelectonix wouldn't work that are a 10 pack for $6 (scoche). Or do I need to purchase the grommets I see on google shopping that are closer to $10/piece? Any reason a traditional rubber grommets wouldn't do the job?

i use the white grommets from sonicelectronix i like them, you will need a 1" drill bit for the hole, just don't over tighten the nut ( you can add glue to the threads so the nut doesn't come loose.

I use snap in bushings.

They're not water tight but with some silicone you shouldn't have issues. Depending on which you get you might have to ream them out slightly for 1/0 awg. The nice thing about them is that they allow the cable to bend down really fast. Other options like those big firewall bushings/grommets people use end up requiring a larger radius on the cable.
