Sometimes known as the double ‘U’ shear mount, these designs features 2 ‘soft’ axes where the rubber is deformed in shear, and one firm axis where the rubber is in compression. Suitable for isolating vibration caused by low speed machinery and shock protection for sensitive equipment.
The NRSC mount (Narrow style) has top and bottom slots for ease of mounting onto the isolated equipment and floor or base.
Installation Fixed to isolated equipment and to a sub frame or floor. In mobile applications, the mount is normally installed such that the firm axis is aligned with the direction of travel. Also for rotating machinery, the soft axes are aligned at right angles to the shaft and the firm axis parallel to the rotating shaft.
Typical Applications Fans, compressors, portable generator sets (gensets), measuring and test equipment, mobile equipment, computers and electronic units, transit cases.
Materials Rubber: Natural rubber (polyisoprene) of different grades (see Materials) Alternative elastomers available on request. Metal: Steel with sherardised and clear passivate finish. Plated nuts and lock washers included with mount.
