The new UT grommets from icotek are made for frameless installation up to IP54 for routing cables both with and without plugs into housings. The UT grommet is a U-shaped grommet with slots on one side and has a diameter range of between 4 to 11 mm. The grommet allows singular cables with a variable clamping range of 2mm to be routed in a safe manner and is tool-less.

This U-shaped grommet is best suited for installation on the bottom part of the housing and is easily mounted around the cable. “The fitted grommet is routed into the recommended opening and the housing cover is put on. By screwing the cover on, the required pressure is exerted on the UT grommet, which enables sealing up to IP54. The grommet is routed into the lower part of the housing without a frame or tools. The wall thickness of the housing can be 1 - 4 mm.”

The UT grommet is made of icotek’s elastomer, has high UV resistance, is silicone and halogen-free, and meets the fire class of UL 94 V-0. It works within a temperature range of -40 °C to 100 °C.
