Grommet

摘要

The present invention relates to a grommet capable of easy installation by reducing an insertion resistance when conducting an insertion of the grommet into an opening of a vehicle panel. The configuration of the grommet allows molds for forming the grommet to have reduced processing costs, and molding and installation time can also be decreased. The grommet includes wire harness holding areas for tightly engaging around the periphery of the wire harness and an engagement area which fixedly engages an opening provided on a vehicle panel. A tapered area connects a wire harness holding area and an engagement area with a near-conical tapered surface extending over the outer surface of a tapered area, and a plurality of linear convex areas are provided to extend from a wire harness holding area to the engagement area, in an insertion direction of the grommet over the entire periphery on the tapered area.
