US industrial sealing manufacturer, APM Hexseal developed the Pushbutton Boot, with a flare that is well-suited for a variety of industrial, military, medical, marine and many other demanding applications.
The APM 1231/46 sealing boot provides an additional layer of protection against extreme environments including
dust, splashing or hose-directed water. In addition the sealing boot meets strict UL and NEMA requirements.
APM toggle boots are moulded from a high tear-strength silicone rubber (other materials available for specific environments) moulded to a built-in mounting nut. Each encloses the base of the protruding switch bushing and forms a watertight and dust-tight seal to the front panel surface with a moulded in sealing rib.
