Thwaites Grommet 1 3/4" X 3/16" X 1 1/2" - OEM Number: T10306

The Thwaites Grommet (OEM T10306) is a genuine replacement rubber protection grommet designed for use on a range of Thwaites site dumpers and construction equipment. It is fitted into panel openings, bulkheads, chassis sections, and equipment housings where cables, wiring looms, hydraulic lines, or control cables pass through metal panels, helping to protect them from abrasion, vibration, and edge damage.

Manufactured to OEM specifications, this grommet is engineered for durability, flexibility, and resistance to environmental exposure. The rubber construction helps absorb vibration while providing a protective barrier between metal panel edges and routed components, reducing the risk of wear and premature failure.

FUNCTION AND OPERATION

• Protects cables and hoses passing through panel apertures
• Prevents abrasion against sharp metal edges
• Reduces vibration transfer to wiring and pipework
• Helps maintain the integrity of electrical and hydraulic systems
• Provides a neat and secure passage through panels and bulkheads
• Designed for demanding construction and industrial environments

TECHNICAL DETAILS

• OEM Part Number: T10306
• Type: Rubber grommet / cable protection grommet
• Function: Cable, hose, and wiring protection component
• Application: Electrical, hydraulic, and control system installations
• Construction: Flexible industrial-grade rubber
• Outside Diameter: 1¾" (44.45 mm)
• Groove Width: 3/16" (4.76 mm)

Rubber grommets of this type are commonly used throughout construction machinery to protect wiring looms, hydraulic hoses, throttle cables, and other routed components from damage caused by vibration and movement.

TYPICAL APPLICATIONS

Suitable for a range of Thwaites equipment, including:

• Thwaites 1 Tonne dumpers
• Thwaites 3 Tonne dumpers
• Thwaites 5 Tonne dumpers
• Thwaites 6 Tonne dumpers
• Thwaites 9 Tonne dumpers
• Thwaites Power Swivel dumpers
• Electrical wiring harness installations
• Hydraulic hose and control cable routing points

Similar protective grommets are widely used throughout construction, agricultural, and industrial machinery wherever cables or hoses pass through metal panels or structural members.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION

Always confirm the correct OEM part number and dimensions before ordering, as grommets are manufactured in numerous sizes to suit different panel thicknesses and aperture diameters. A missing, damaged, or incorrectly sized grommet can allow cables, hoses, and wiring looms to rub against metal edges, potentially leading to insulation damage, fluid leaks, electrical faults, or premature component failure. During maintenance, it is recommended to inspect grommets regularly for cracking, hardening, tearing, or displacement, particularly in high-vibration areas of the machine.
