Abstract: A grommet G according to the present invention is provided with, on the outer side of a second flexible portion 22, a padding portion 4. With this, of a pressing force F which acts from the cylindrical base part 1 side to the seal portion 3 side, a panel parallel component F1 parallel to a dash panel DP is hardly transmitted. On the other hand, a panel vertical component F2 vertical to the dash panel DP is easily transmitted. Consequently, the panel vertical component F2 becomes relatively large, and even if the seal portion 3 is brought into contact with the dash panel DP by acting the pressing force F from the oblique direction, the rolling-up caused by the occurrence of the inclination of the seal portion 3 can be suppressed.
