Abstract
A grommet which can maintain water tightness in response to inclination is provided. In an attachment section of the grommet, a substantially right-angled first bending portion is formed between a first flange portion and a tubular portion. Thus, when the attachment section is inclined with respect to a panel member, the first bending portion changes in angle, thereby absorbing the inclination, and thereby maintaining the contact between the annular lip portion and a planar portion. As a result, water tightness can be maintained in response to the inclination.
