What are Metal Grommets?

Metal Grommets are metal rings that are inserted into a hole made through another material. They may be used to reinforce the hole, to shield something from the sharp edges of the hole, or both. Small grommets are also called eyelets especially when used in clothing or crafting. When using eyelets for crafting, they are generally used decoratively. When used in sailing and various other applications they are called cringles.

If metal or another hard material has a hole made in it, the hole may have sharp edges. Electrical wires, cord, rope, lacings, or other soft vulnerable material passing through the hole can become abraded or cut, resulting in damage. Rubber, plastic or plastic coated metal grommets are each used to avoid this. The smooth and sometimes soft inner surface of the grommet shields the wire from damage.
