By MICRON® America — CE & ISO 9001 Certified

Oblong (oval) grommets provide a refined alternative to round grommets when straps, webbing, belts, or heavy panels require a longer opening and improved stress distribution. In this guide, you’ll compare two popular options: brass oblong grommets for decorative and premium applications, and galvanized steel oblong grommets with teeth washers for heavy-duty outdoor use. All MICRON® solutions are designed for precision compatibility with certified machines and dies.
