Sealing Boots Protect Switches

Dec. 1, 1998

Offered in sizes to fit 1/4" to 15/32" toggle and pushbutton switches, as well as 4-, 12- and 12.2-mm pushbutton switches, these waterproof switch sealing boots prevent dust, water and other contaminants from getting into switches. Toggle switch models are available in two designs, one that covers the toggle handle completely and another permits the toggle handle to project from the sealing boot while sealing around the periphery. The pushbutton models completely cover the actuator of the switch. Operating temperatures for the silicone rubber models is -40°C to 85°C and or neoprene, -20°C to 50°C.
