    Default Boots for Power Tool Cables


    Hi All , can anyone tell me where ( in Queensland ) I can buy rubber or
    plastic boots for my power tools . I have several Makita & other brands &
    the rubber boots where the cable enters the tool are cracking / gone .
    So I need about 10 of these to spruce up my tools .
    These boots fit over a 7 mm /240 V cable . They are 16mm at the wide end &
    taper down to about 9 mm . They are about 90 mm long .
    So a phone # or an email address of the place to get them would be very helpful .
    Thanks in advance from ken in Mackay , Q.

    Most power tool service centres keep these grommets as spare parts.

    Get the right ones for your tools as they do come in different shapes depending on how they are held in the tools.
