Description
Premium Hexagonal Male-Female anti vibration rubber bobbin mounts
Let's breakdown the long product title (Premium Hexagonal Male-Female anti vibration rubber bobbin mounts) to understand what these bobbins are:
- These mounts are premium as they use higher quality materials with tighter rubber tolerances. That makes the all-important spring rate considerably more repeatable than it is in our 'basic' range. If the spring rate does not matter to you, and you are happy with a basic grade of product, then maybe try those options.
- The threaded head of the stud at each of the product is hexagonal. That is really popular when a spanner or wrench is needed to tighten the product into place.
- The threads on this product one female, one male.
- The purpose of the product is to absorb vibration, hence the 'anti-vibration' element in the name
- This type of product is commonly known as a bobbin mount - a lump of, admittedly quite sophisticated rubber, sandwiched between two threaded studs.
This small cylindrical bobbin mount is made in-house and used in light industrial applications. If required, we can make bespoke versions of this product, please contact us for further information.
We do have a larger version of this bobbin (24mm across the flats), but are waiting to test them in their different forms.
The following information is for guidelines only, loading is in compression per mount. This mount type is predominantly used in shear or tension rather than in compression (these loads should be divided by 4 for shear).
The hexagonal head on the threaded studs used for this product is useful for holding the product in place while the thread is tightened.
These rubber bobbin mounts are generally used in applications where forcing vibrations are at least 15Hz, ideally at least 19Hz.
Materials:
- Rubber: Our default version of this product uses a highly effective natural rubber material.
- Variants: EPDM, Nitrile or Neoprene.
- Metals: Our default product uses sherardize (zinc) plated mild steel
- Variants: Stainless steel can be quoted separately.
