If you use a heat gun, be careful not to melt the material which I believe to be silicone similar to that used in diving gear. I didn't want to use any substance that might collect dirt and grime. Don't use the foaming junk. THEY ARE RIGHT. Good protection for a great tool - and looks good.
Use quality silicone like NAPA or CRC Heavy Duty. Other reviewers have recommended heating and lubricating before attempting to install. A hair dryer is safer. Once installed, it is a very snug fit and allows access to lubrication points and controls. Instead of dish soap, I used spray silicone.
This one was great. Strong material and it makes to tool look new, for awhile anyway. It worked just fine on an off brand impact air tool and I would buy another if I needed to. It fit snug and with a bit of tugging wasn't too hard to get on.
Probably not. The charge of $9.00 is alot for this little peice of plastisized rubber. There isn't much to say. It is difficult to put on, but once on, it does its job. But, if tools are important to you, why not protect them so they can give you their best service. Is it important to have the boot.
I did NOT do that and had a but of a time getting the thing on. Perhaps a review is not really needed for such a simple product but here's mine anyway. This rubber tool boot goes over your IR air ratchet. Once "installed" it does fit well and certainly protects my new ratchet as I'd hoped. This is NOT a universal fit so please be sure you order the correct one for your particular model.You may wish to heat it slightly with a hair dryer or apply a but of dish soap to make it easier to slip over the tool.
