Double G Pad with Load Plate - Heavy Duty Low Frequency Isolating Pad (3kN - 72kN)

Understanding the 'Double G Pad with Load Plate - Heavy Duty Low Frequency Isolating Pad'.

The G-Pad series of anti-vibration mounts are heavy duty pads for supporting and isolating low frequency vibrating equipment or equipment which experiences shock loading.  The "Double G Pad" increases the amount of static deflection through doubling the height of the absorption media.  This particular version comes with a load plate in case a point load needs to be applied by the supported equipment (e.g. a foot) which can be placed in the recessed centre of the plate.  Without the load plate the aluminium carcas of the product might bend or be damaged, which would impact product performance. 

The G-Pad anti-vibration mounts are used, for example, to isolate the vibrations generated by industrial machinery, shears, presses and air-conditioning units when a mechanical fixing between the machine and the support surface is not necessary.

This version of the G-Pad is the standard product but comes with steel top plate.  This is useful in applications where loads may be concentrated into a small area resulting in potential wear or bending of the aluminium plate.  The steel plate has a curved recess which is designed to accept more concentrated loads (e.g. machine foot) which are then spread more evenly across the product by the steel plate.

Note: Look at the G-Pad Standard product if a lower height version is required.
