Frequently Asked Questions
- What is an accordion boot?
An accordion boot is a flexible rubber connector that creates a weatherproof seal between two compartments, such as a truck cab and camper shell.
- Does the acordian truck boot require glue to install?
No glue is required. The acordian truck boot has a spring clip embedded in the EPDM rubber that clamps onto a thin flange. You can optionally glue the seam using cyanoacrylate (SuperGlue), but avoid petroleum-based adhesives.
