Tandem unitized center bolt mounts are vibration isolators designed for axial loads between 150 and 900 lbf. The A10Z42-A6010 mount has a nominal axial load rating of 500 lbf and a nominal axial deflection of 0.018 in. It has an outer diameter of 3.00 in, a height of 1.81 in, and a center bolt diameter of 0.75 in. The outer body is natural rubber, and the spacer is steel. A chamfer of 22.50° × 0.20 is present at one end. Installation requires lubrication and manual insertion, with a driving bolt used only if necessary and carefully aligned to avoid overhanging the steel sleeve.
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.
