Conductor Grommet Assembly

A conductor grommet assembly configured to allow a conductor to be easily passed through a surface, said assembly comprising:

• a grommet having a front side, a back side and a peripheral wall extending therebetween, each of said front side and said back side being open, said grommet being substantially hollow, said peripheral wall having an outer surface and an inner surface, said outer surface having a plurality of ridges extending outwardly from said outer surface, each of said ridges being continuous and extending around said outer surface, said ridges being spaced apart from each other between said front side and said back side, said grommet being configured to be positioned in a support surface such that said front side and said back side are each aligned with one of an inside surface and an exterior surface of the support surface, said ridges engaging said support surface such that said grommet is retained in the support surface, said grommet being configured to have at least one conductor passed therethrough such that the at least one conductor passes through the support surface;
• a bearing apparatus coupled to said grommet, said bearing apparatus being configured to engage the conductor thereby reducing a friction of the conductor against said grommet as the conductor is fed through said grommet, said bearing apparatus comprising:
• a plurality of rollers, each of said rollers being coupled to said inner surface of said peripheral wall, said rollers comprising a first set of rollers and a second set of rollers, said first set of rollers being positioned adjacent to said front side, each of said first set of rollers being evenly spaced apart from and positioned on opposite sides of a longitudinal axis bisecting said grommet, said second set of rollers being positioned adjacent to said back side, each of said second set of rollers being evenly spaced apart from and positioned on opposites side of said longitudinal axis, each of said rollers including:
• a pair of couplers being spaced apart and aligned with each other;
• a shaft attached between said pair of couplers;
• and
• a sleeve rotatably positioned around said shaft and extending between said couplers, said sleeve having an outer surface, said outer surface being configured to engage the conductor such that the sleeves rotate when the conductor is urged through said grommet.
