Rubber Cable Grommet: Protection and Stability for Brake Hoses on Lambretta and Motorcycles

In the world of restoration and customization of classic scooters and motorcycles, attention to detail is not only an aesthetic issue, but also a functional one. One of the elements often overlooked is the correct fixing of brake pipes or sheaths, especially in points subject to vibration and rubbing. In this context, the use of a rubberized cable gland with a Ø10 mm rubber ring and a 15 mm stainless steel band represents an effective and reliable technical solution.

Why use a rubber grommet?

When a brake hose passes close to a metal part of the chassis or bodywork, fretting wear can compromise the integrity of the hose, potentially impacting safety and performance. The rubber grommet acts as a mechanical isolator, absorbing vibrations and preventing direct contact between the hose and hard surfaces.

Technical characteristics

• Inner diameter of rubber ring: 10 mm

• Stainless steel band width: 15mm

• Weather resistance

• Anti-vibration and anti-wear insulation

The stainless steel band ensures a stable and long-lasting fixing, while the flexible rubber ring protects the pipe without over-tightening it.

Typical applications

The cable gland is widely used on:

• Lambretta, especially in restorations with disc brake or hydraulic modifications

• Vintage or modern motorcycles, where upgrades are performed on braking systems

• Custom projects, where clean installation and component protection are essential

Conclusion

Simple to install and highly functional, the universal cable gland Ø10 is an essential technical accessory for those looking for a clean, safe and long-lasting result in fixing pipes on two-wheeled vehicles. It is a small detail, but with a big impact on the quality of the assembly.
