Cylindrical vibration isolators designed for compression and shear loads, with a steel stud and natural rubber element, rated for compression loads from 33 to 79 lbf and shear loads from 18 to 40 lbf. The part features a 5/16-18 UNC thread and a maximum unthreaded stud length not exceeding 1/16 inch. Load-deflection graphs provide safe static deflection limits and dynamic performance data, with minimum loads for 81% isolation specified across forcing frequencies from 850 to 3600 cycles per minute. The component is zinc-plated steel with natural rubber and complies with inch dimensions.
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.
