excellent electrical, mechanical and environmental protection. Heating the boot causes the boot

to shrink onto the conduit fitting or transition. These

lipped boots attach directly to all Guardian fittings.

After shrinking, the boot lip locks into groove. Standard

Guardian system boots are Type 1 High Performance

Elastomer for extreme temperature range performance,

and excellent resistance to fuels and oils. The standard

Guardian boot also includes an eylet for attachment of

dust caps or protective covers. Part numbers are shown

in the table at right. Other boot materials, adhesives and

options are shown in the following pages.

type 1 High Performance Elastomer

Semi-rigid high performance boots combine excellent resistance to fuels, oils and solvents with

superior performance at extreme temperatures. Rated for 3000 hours continuous operation at

+150° C, these boots fit directly to Guardian fittings and adapters for superior environmental

protection and strain-relief. Material meets the requirements of VG95343 Part 6, BSG 198-5-

DE, EN62329-102 and SAE AS5258 Type H. These boots are recommended for demanding

applications such as military vehicles and petrochemical exploration. Black color.

type 2 Zero Halogen

Halogen-free polyolefin boots meet low smoke and toxicity requirements of shipboard, transit

and aircraft systems. These Low Smoke/Zero Halogen (LSZH) boots fit directly on all Guardian

system adapters and fittings. Oxygen index greater than 30%, smoke index less than 20,

and toxicity index under 3 per 100 grams. Material meets requirements of NAVSEA 5617649,

VG95343 Part 29, BSG 198-5-DF, EN62329-101 and SAE AS5258 Type G. Good resistance to oils,

fuels and solvents. These boots provide strain relief and environmental protection to connector/

conduit transitions. Temperature rating -30° to +125° C. Black color.
