There is disclosed an easy to install grommet device for protecting conduit passing through a wall opening and for providing an air seal between the conduit and the edge of the wall around the wall opening. The grommet device has a relatively stiff fastener portion with projections extending therefrom and locking devices at the ends of the projections for engaging the edges of the wall around the wall opening. An elastomeric seal portion receives the projections and has an aperture of smaller dimensions than the outside dimensions of the conduit.

A grommet device for protecting conduit passing through a wall opening, and for providing an air seal between the conduit and the edges of the wall around the wall opening, comprising: a. a fastener portion made of relatively stiff material having: i. a base portion, said base portion having an opening appropriately sized to allow the passage of said conduit through said base portion opening and to prevent said conduit from contacting the wall at the wall opening, ii. a plurality of projections extending outwardly from said base portion and disposed around said base portion opening, and iii. locking means at the ends of said projections for locking said grommet device in place relative to said wall opening; b. a seal portion made of elastomeric material having: i. an aperture of slightly less dimensions than the outside dimensions of said conduit, whereby a seal around the perimeter of said conduit is formed when said conduit is passed through said aperture of said seal portion, and ii. a plurality of openings appropriately positioned around said seal portion aperture to receive said projections, iii. those portions of the seal portion near said seal portion openings having a thickness that is less than the length of said respective fastener portion projections, whereby said locking means protrude beyond those portions of the seal portion near said seal portion openings when said seal portion is assembled onto said fastener portion.
