Abstract
A grommet includes a hollow grommet main body comprising an elastic material and a protector placed in a hollow space of the grommet main body. The protector has a deep-side end portion located in a deep-side area of the hollow space, an opening-end-side end portion located in an opening-end-side area of the hollow space, and a protector-side engagement portion engaged with the grommet main body when the protector is placed in the grommet main body. The grommet main body has a grommet-main-body-side engagement portion to exert a preventive force to the protector-side engagement portion for preventing separation of the protector from the grommet main body, while eliminating a structure to exert the preventive force to the opening-end-side end portion.
