Blue Sea Systems 4138 WeatherDeck Toggle Switch Boot, Black
The Blue Sea Systems 4138 WeatherDeck Toggle Switch Boot is a replacement dress nut boot for mounting on WeatherDeck Panel Switches, sealing the toggle actuator against water intrusion at the panel face. It is rated IP67, meaning it withstands temporary immersion for up to 30 minutes, making it suited to open helm stations, flybridges, and other exposed switch panel locations where spray and washdown are routine. The boot is molded from UV resistant material that resists discoloration and cracking from prolonged sun exposure, helping the switch panel keep a clean black finish over time instead of yellowing or going brittle.
Installation is a direct panel-mount replacement for the dress nut on an existing WeatherDeck toggle switch, restoring the watertight seal around the toggle lever without requiring any rewiring. It is finished in black to match Blue Sea Systems WeatherDeck panel switches and circuit breakers.
