The ones on my CNC mill have seals. There are 3 pieces -- one on the back of each housing in the set (where the wires go into the housings), and one in the middle where they attach together. They're soft silicone seals. Very swarf and coolant proof. Cheers, -Neil. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Got Input? Slashdot Needs You.
