Weatherproof connectors

TommyHotWheel · 11-17-2008, 11:42 PM

The weatherpack is a rebuildable, re-useable and temperature resistant plug. Moira, the boat place I checked has the connectors I am looking at, but I really didnt think of that...shame on me, thank you for the help. The area that I am in is surrounded by salt water, so my electrical connections are succeptible to the salt air. I want a connection that I can plug and unplug so I can replace or work on parts often if needed. I was hoping to get away from the bullet connectors and shrink wrap and go with a little more professional...finished look. I should have posted more in the first post, but I am at work, so I dont have much time. Thanks everyone.

Touratech (touratech.com) makes "panzerized" fused blocks and connectors for use on Beemers (part # 044-045) that are pricy but will hold up forever. Their stuff is about as rugged and weatherproof as anything you will find......

If you are going the heat shrink route, there is some available that has an adhesive on the inside of the tube giving greater water resistance than the non adhesive shrink tubing.
