Description of bootfitting products "The Boot Tools"

- “The Boot Tools" length devices must be put in place and removed from the boot using a shell spreader and using a screw connector placed between the device and the press.

This screw connector will allow easy insertion of the device/connectors/press into the boot and will take up the play once in place in order to use the entire stroke of the hydraulic press for stretching.

Do not hit the device/connectors/press to insert it into the boot.

- It is advisable to use a silicone spray before using the Length Tips, this will greatly facilitate removal after Stretching.

- It is advisable to manually check that the boot to be stretched does not have any protruding angles in the area to be stretched.

“The Boot Tools” devices are made of a very resistant polymer, despite this, if the device is used against a protruding angle it can be slightly marked by this angle. This will not make the device unusable, it is only visual.

Be careful for example when using the Length Tip with a removed or sanded baseboard, the fins often present at the end of the boot can mark the device if they force against it.

- It is strongly discouraged to directly heat the polymer tools"The Boot Tools".

The polymer shapes sold on this site are extremely resistant to compression. Tests were carried out with a pressure sensor and the material withstands the high stresses exerted during deformations despite a temperature which may reach 120°C. by conduction. Heating the polymer directly (as can be done with aluminum) risks bringing the tool to a temperature above140°C. and greatly reducing this resistance to compression.
