Straight short lipped heatshrink boots from Glenair are used where clearance is limited. Once the boot has been shrunk, the lip locks into the adaptor groove. The eyelet hole allows for the attachment of dust caps or protective covers. The heatshrink boot size is based on adaptor diameter and cable diameter.

Type 1 high performance elastomer short lipped straight heatshrink boot is a semi rigid boot that fits most standard boot adapters, with performance at extreme temperatures and excellent resistance to fuels, oils and solvents. Operating temperature from -75º to +150ºC. The heatshrink boot material meets the requirements of VG95343 Type 6, BSG 198-5-DE, EN62329-102 and SAE AS5258 Type H. These boots are suitable for military vehicles, petrochemical exploration and other demanding environments.

Type 2 zero halogen, short lipped straight heatshrink boot is a semi flexible, flame retardant polyolefin boot that meets the low smoke and toxicity requirements of shipboard, transit and aircraft systems. With good resistance to oils, fuels and solvents, the low smoke zero halogen (LSZH) heat shrink boot fits most standard adapters that include M85049 and material meets the requirements of NAVSEA 5617649, VG95343 Part 29, BSG 198-5-DF, EN62329-101 and SAE AS5258 Type G. These boots provide strain relief and environmental protection to connector/ cable transitions with a temperature rating -30ºC to +125ºC.
