APM HEXSEAL was founded in 1947 with the mission to devel-
op and manufacture environmental sealing solutions to pro-
tect and prolong the life of electromechanical switches and
circuit breakers in hostile environmental conditions around
the globe. This focused effort resulted in the development of
an extensive line of standard silicone sealing boots that are
compatible with the vast majority of switches, breakers, en-
coders, potentiometers and rotary devices used throughout
the world today.
Complimentary sealing products were soon
developed and patented, including a com-
plete line of reusable, self-sealing fasteners,
and silicone colorizing incandescent lamp fil-
ters that transmit colors for instrument panels
and lighted pushbutton switches.

APM Hexseal Boots for Toggle, Pushbutton
& Rotary Switches
Any unsealed electrical devices mounted to a control panel or piece of electrical equipment can
fall victim to the impacts of hostile environmental factors if not properly protected. In this
context, “environmental” is a very broad term, encompassing any number of possible factors,
including weather conditions like rain, snow or prolonged wind and sun exposure, pressure
changes from submersion in fluids or changes in altitude, contaminants such as water, ice, salt,
air, dust, dirt, grease, chemicals, and even spilled beverages.
APM Hexseal's Sealing Boots are designed to protect the vulnerable areas of a device, and
create a seal against the mounting panel, providing strong protection for the device itself, and
for the overall function of the system.

APM Hexseal Bushing Seals
For Switch Panel Cut-Outs
Bushing Seals pack all the sealing power of a boot, but
focus on the mounting hole as opposed to the switch itself.
Installed before a switch locking nut, the bushing seal fits
snugly against the mounting panel, sealing the mounting
hole from any possible intrusion. Bushing Seals are small,
inconspicuous and perfect for already sealed toggle, push
button and rotary switches.

APM Hexseal Boots for Circuit Breakers & Rocker Switches
Circuit breakers perform a very valuable role in all sorts of control systems, protecting equipment from short circuits and electrical overloads. APM Hexseal’s lever-
actuated circuit breaker boots are designed to protect these critical devices, extending breaker life-spans and in turn helping to ensure long-term security of the
system as a whole. Molded from APM Hexseal’s transparent silicone RUBRGLAS®, which is specially formulated to maintain clarity and prevent yellowing over time,
these boots allow for easy device operation and status recognition while maintaining APM Hexseal’s exceptional environmental
protection from weather exposure, wash downs, salt water, lubricants, solvents, dust, dirt, grease and any number of other
environmental elements that could potentially threaten electrical components. Our two distinct boot styles are
Back-of-Panel, secured behind the breaker mounting panel, and Front-of-Panel, mounted to the outside of a
panel using a sturdy metal frame. Both styles are secured using APM Hexseal’s self-sealing Seelskrews.
Much like our Circuit Breaker Boots, APM Hexseal’s Rocker Boots are often molded from transparent
silicone RUBRGLAS® which makes for easy viewing of the switch position. The majority of our Rocker Boots
do not include an insert or frame, and are designed to install on the switch prior to the switch installation.
