# MAXSpline Grommet

The MAXSpline Grommet provides a simple way to route wires through [MAXTube](https://www.revrobotics.com/MAXTube-2x1/?searchid=4877582\&search_query=maxtube) while preventing abrasion against bare aluminum. Made from pliable 60A rubber, it press-fits into the MAXSpline Bore on MAXTube with a 1/8 inch wall, creating a clean pass-through point that protects your wiring in any build.&#x20;

## Tips and Tricks

MAX Pattern Tubing makes wire management simple, but the sharp edges from the pattern holes can tear up your CAN/PWM cable's sheathing. MAX Grommets are easy to install and allow smooth pass-through.

Grab your grommet and line the spline teeth into the grooves. Start working the lip of the grommet around the teeth so that it covers the gaps.

Double-check that both lips of the MAX Grommet are covering all sharp edges from the pattern hole. Now you can safely move your wires without worry.
