Abstract

An injectable grommet assembly for passing a bundle of insulated electric wires through a bulkhead comprises a pair of assembled shells having complementary grommet and flange segments. The grommet segments form an annular seal chamber which surrounds the bundle of insulated electric wires. A wire clip disposed in this chamber spreads out the bundle of insulated wires so that sealant injected into the chamber also fills spaces between the insulated electric wires. The assembly also includes a gasket for sealing against the face of the bulkhead.
