Cylindrical vibration isolators designed for compression and shear loads, with a steel stud threaded 5/16-18 UNC and natural rubber isolation element, rated for compression loads of 37 to 86 lbf and shear loads of 16 to 43 lbf. The A10Z 2-316D variant supports a minimum shear load of 43 lbf for 81% isolation at forcing frequencies up to 1500 cycles per minute, and a minimum compression load of 86 lbf at frequencies up to 1500 cycles per minute, with no isolation effectiveness beyond 3000 cycles per minute in shear. The unthreaded stud length does not exceed 1/16 inch, and the isolator is zinc plated.
Vibration isolators, vibration isolation mounts, and shock isolators all refer to anti-vibration mounts. Largely used in the HVAC industry, they are also used in everyday items such as computers, printers, fans, and home appliances.
Vibration can cause machines to malfunction by shaking sensitive equipment, causing screws and nuts to loosen or even "back out”. Vibration causes damage from friction to surrounding areas and noise pollution throughout factories. Vibration can typically be controlled but not necessarily eliminated. Anti-vibration mounts are a cost-effective way to avoid damage and malfunction due to excessive vibration.
