Anti Vibration Mountings

Rubber anti-vibration mountings are used in a vast range of applications where the prime objective is to eliminate harmful vibration and reduce noise and absorb shock. The high internal isolating properties of rubber make them well suited for making anti-vibration mountings. A wide range of rubber anti-vibration mountings is available.

Types of Rubber used

  • Natural Rubber
  • Neoprene
  • Silicone
  • SBR
  • EPDM

Functions of Anti Vibration Mountings

  • Isolate vibrations from work surfaces
  • Reduce noise levels
  • Absorb shock

Properties of Rubber Anti Vibration Mountings

  • Resistance to oils.
  • Resistant to surface abrasion wear and sunlight exposure.
  • Withstand large temperature fluctuations.
  • Radial elasticity greater than axial elasticity.
  • The rubber can work in:
  • A wide variety of dimensions is available.
  • Easy to Fix.

Types of Anti Vibration Mounts

    1. Cylindrical Mounts: Mountings usually for general low cost applications. They are easy-to-install mounts, made of high quality rubber and provided with mild steel connection plates.
    2. Technical Mounts: Rubber mounts providing a technical solution for reducing noise and vibration transmission and shock protection.
    3. Leveling Mounts: The elastomer base has anti-slip ridges.
    4. Anti Vibration Plates:Plates, providing a good protection and decreasing the noise level in workshops.

Applications

    Rubber mountings provide vibration isolation solution to the following:

  • Cooling systems
  • Chassis to body excitation
  • Sensitive electrical /electronics equipment
  • Cab mounting
  • Suspension systems
  • Engines
  • Transmissions / gearboxes
  • Fuel systems / fuel tanks
  • Steering linkages
  • Exhaust systems
  • Torque / drive couplings
  • Pipework
  • Electrical enclosures

Industrial Applications
