ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE An improved sealing member utilizable as a plug button or grommet is disclosed. An annular locking portion made of a rigid material is integrally bonded to a flexible elastomeric body. For use as a grommet, the sealing member also has an opening in the center of the elastomeric body and a sealing surface projecting therefrom for engaging a member (wire, cable, or the like) to be supported thereby. The rigid annular shaped portion of the sealing member has a tapered shape and is slightly larger than the opening in which the sealing member is to be positioned; the member has to be tilted or cocked in order to be inserted in place. Once the rigid annular locking portion is inserted beyond the opening, the sealing member is securely held and locked in place by the outer edge of the annular portion, Once inserted, the sealing member seals the opening around the entire edge thereof. A secondary sealing means can also be provided in the form of a raised sealing ridge on the outer periphery of the flexible elastomeric body.
