175 amps is a lot of current to be running through an exposed connector in Australian conditions. Heat, UV, road salt, dust — it all degrades the joint over time. This source-side soft-shell rubber boot seals the connection to IP64. UV, roadway chemical and ozone resistant. Splash-proof when mated, sealed on its own with the integral cover. Trim the terminal end to fit 12-6 AWG (4-16 mm²) cable so the seal sits flush. No more pulling back that connector after a wash to check for moisture. Put the boot on once and forget it
