HEXSEAL®and E-SEEL®toggle switch boots are molded from a high tear-strength silicone rubber (other materials
available for specific environments) bonded to a built-in mounting nut. Each encloses the base of the protruding switch
bushing and forms a watertight and dust-tight seal against the front panel surface.
