I don't have any sheets I bought 132's a while back and they don't need heatsinks. They are all bolted to angle aluminum I'm not sure what thickness, whatever was available at my local hardware store.

"Holes in metal or another hard material will often have sharp edges.[5] Electrical wires, cord, rope, lacings, or other soft vulnerable material passing through the hole can become abraded or cut, or electrical insulation may break due to repeated flexing at the exit point of the casing of a junction box for example.[5] Rubber, plastic or plastic coated metal grommets are used to avoid this. Tight fitting rubber grommets can also prevent the entry of dirt, air, water, etc.[5] The smooth and sometimes soft inner surface of the grommet shields the wire from damage.[5]
Grommets are generally used whenever wires pass through punched or drilled sheet metal or plastic casings for this reason.[5] Molded and continuous strip grommets, also known as edge grommets, are manufactured in a wide variety of sizes and lengths expressly for this purpose; they are usually a single piece which can be inserted by hand. "
Yeah, I'm making this shit up. Sure... It's all part of my plan to be mean to some rando on the internet.

Well I felt like seeing what you had to say. Honestly I felt like you came off as a jerk with both of your responses to me "all you did is create an opportune chance for a short" and "if it were solid it would have a grommet" or whatever. You really didn't intend those the way they came off?
If people are just going to be jerks id rather not deal with them.

I never said you made shit up what I took offence to is the way to chose to say it.

Whatever, you seem like a major drama queen.
Would it _kill_ you to put a drop of hot glue on it?

I have hot glue, didn't even occur to me to be an option, it's 20 minutes to the closest place to get grommets. Thanks for actually being helpful, sorry for being a "tone troll"
I still kinda think you were being a jerk about it though.

Just put a dab of clear silicone in the hole around the wire. Easy peezy.
