Grommets for holding cables

A grommet formed of a polymeric material and adapted for securing a cable within a cable hanger, comprising:

• a main body having a generally cylindrical profile surrounding an interior cavity;
• a slot extending a length of the main body which provides an entry point for the cable to be inserted into the interior cavity;
• a plurality of flex retention members extending into the interior cavity configured to grip and secure the cable within the interior cavity, each flex retention member having a first end and an opposing second end, the first and second ends of each flex retention member coupled to or integral with an inner surface of the main body;
• and
• one or more grip enhancement features residing between the inner surface of the main body and the flex retention members, wherein the grip enhancement features are configured to provide additional support to the flex retention members when a cable is inserted into the interior cavity,
• wherein each of the one or more grip enhancement features are coupled to or integral with the inner surface of the main body and extend radially inwardly therefrom, and wherein each grip enhancement feature is configured to engage or contact a respective flex retention member when a larger diameter cable is received within the interior cavity of the grommet.

• one or more grip enhancement features residing between an inner surface of the main body and the flex retention members;
• and
• two arms extending radially outwardly from the main body, one arm extending from a bottom edge of the main body and the other arm extending from a top edge of the main body, wherein each arm includes a flanged edge configured to engage the cable hanger when an excessive load force is applied to the cable,
• wherein, when a cable resides within the interior cavity of the main body, the grip enhancement features are configured to provide additional support to the flex retention members to secure and hold the cable within the grommet.
