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