AirBlock 5 Inch Aluminum Air Blocking Grommet

The most effective way to allow cables to pass safely through panels in your raised floor system is by installing grommets. Grommets form a protective barrier around valuable cabling, preventing them from being sliced or abraded by the sharp panel edges created when the floor is cut. They also have the added benefit of keeping fingers and hands safe from those same sharp edges while handling cables in cut-out areas of panels. 

This model is similar to our standard 5" grommet, however, it is constructed of strong anodized aluminum and has a special neoprene insert which creates an airtight seal around cables, eliminating air loss around the grommet. It is ideal for data centers with hot aisle/cold aisle containment plans, or for facilities that wish to improve overall PUE.
