Hubbell HBL6017 Weatherproof Boot
The Hubbell HBL6017 is a weatherproof boot designed for straight blade Insulgrip plugs rated at 15 A or 20 A. It suits electricians and maintenance crews who need to protect outdoor or wash-down connections from moisture and debris.
IP55 protection under continuous exposure
The elastomer housing carries an IP55 rating and resists chemicals and UV sunlight across a -40 °C to 75 °C operating range. It maintains its seal during sustained outdoor use rather than only during brief splashes.
Simple push-on fit for short plugs
The 2.6 in short-length boot slides over compatible straight blade Insulgrip plugs without tools. Installers must verify the plug matches the Insulgrip style; other plug types will not seat correctly.

Questions about this item
Does the HBL6017 boot get brittle or soft when it runs at the 75 °C maximum operating temperature all day?
The boot is rated for continuous use up to 75 °C and down to –40 °C, so it retains its elastomer flexibility and chemical resistance across that full range.
Which plug must I already own for this HBL6017 boot to fit?
It is made for straight-blade Insulgrip plugs rated 15 A or 20 A; the boot slides over the plug body and seals the connection.
Will the IP55 seal on this HBL6017 boot stay effective when mated with an older Insulgrip plug that has seen years of service?
The elastomer boot compresses against the plug face to meet IP55, so as long as the older Insulgrip plug body is undamaged the seal remains weatherproof.
