BUMPER - RECESS GROMMET

Bumpers are commonly used in the design of foodservice equipment. A bumper is a mechanical device used to absorb or soften an impact, or protect against collision. Bumpers are often made of rubber or a soft plastic and can be found in or used with ice bins, sliding refrigerator, freezer, and merchandiser doors, ice cream cabinets, holding and serving cabinets and carts, and more.

A grommet is a ring or edge strip inserted into a hole through thin material, typically a sheet of textile fabric, sheet metal or composite of carbon fiber, wood or honeycomb. Grommets are generally flared or collared on each side to keep them in place, and are often made of metal, plastic, or rubber. They may be used to prevent tearing or abrasion of the pierced material or protection from abrasion of the insulation on the wire, cable, line being routed through the penetration, and to cover sharp edges of the piercing, or all of the above.
