Flange Mounts for Vibration Isolation When it involves isolating vibration, controlling shock and reducing noise connected with equipment and machinery vibration, flange mounts perform extremely well in every three regards. The Vibro-Isolator series is specially effective in applications where you can find dynamic vibrational forces at play in multiple directions. That is because they can control the vibration from all directions. In addition they offer superior protection against structural borne vibration. Their axial to radial stiffness ratio is near 1 to 1 1. Because of this they are able to bear both axial and radial loads. Indeed, Vibro-Isolators support axial loads ranging from 20 pounds (9 kg) all the way around 2600 (1180 kg) pounds.

Flange mounts may also be sometimes referred to by other names like safetied tube mounts, 500 series mounts, all altitude mounts and low profile mounts. Whichever name they go by they provide the same reliable vibration isolation and control.

Where are these types of mounts most commonly encountered? Some the countless applications include marine engines, shipping containers, lift trucks, trucks, farm equipment, generators, shipping containers, transportation, construction, rail, portable equipment, compressors, military applications, off highway, machinery, pumps and centrifuges, trailers, radiators, engines, cabs, HVAC, fans and blowers.

For those charged with installation, one of the best properties associated with flange mounts is they are easy to mount. In fact, if a snubbing washer is used, the mounting process is virtually foolproof. Installation occurs through the mounted equipment''s support structure. A mounting hole through the support enables such installation.

Another attractive feature of these mounts is that they are competitively priced compared to other vibration control options. What''s more, users will enjoy a long service life with little to no maintenance required over the flange mount''s lifespan.

As a side benefit, flange mounts reduce structure-borne noise simultaneously they''re controlling the vibration that causes such sound. Consequently, they have the added benefit of assisting to protect the hearing of these who routinely work in vibrational-heavy jobs.

The Vibro-Isolator series of flange mounts accommodate both English and Metric bolts in order that users around the globe can take advantage of all of the perks they have to offer. This particular line is available in seven different sizes to accommodate an array of applications. They also come in several fabrications, including neoprene, natural rubber and nitrile (Buna-N). Finally, MS Flange -Isolator flange mounts are proudly made in the USA.
