GN 253 Vibration/Shock Absorption Mounts

April 15, 2016

J.W. Winco Inc. offers GN 253 vibration/shock absorption mounts in inch and metric sizes. These RoHS-compliant mounts are also known as shock absorbing mounts, vibration mounts, antivibration mounts, vibration bobbins or rubber bumpers.

They are frequently used as end-stop bumpers, e.g., for conveyor trolleys, and also function well as leveling feet. They absorb most of the accumulated kinetic energy on impact and act as dampers and prevent damaging shock and rebound. They can also act as sound dampers.

Mount body is NBR synthetic rubber, vulcanized, 55 durometer (shore hardness +/-5°). Cover plate is steel, zinc plated, blue passivated, molded in. Mounts are available with tapped inserts or threaded studs made of zinc plated, blue passivated, steel, molded in. Versions with 40 or 70 durometer natural rubber material available upon request.

    Hardness is a measure of the resistance of a material to surface indentation or abrasion. There is no absolute scale for hardness. In order to express hardness quantitatively, each type of test has its own scale, which defines hardness. Indentation hardness obtained through static methods is measured by Brinell, Rockwell, Vickers and Knoop tests. Hardness without indentation is measured by a dynamic method, known as the Scleroscope test.
