Picking the right rubber mount for the weight and vibration is very important. This helps the mounts work well and last longer.
Check and take care of your vibration mounts often. This keeps them working and protects your equipment from harm.
What Are Rubber Vibration Dampening Mounts?
Basic Definition
Rubber vibration dampening mounts help lower noise and shaking in machines. These mounts act like a barrier. They keep moving parts apart from the rest of the machine. This stops vibrations from spreading to the floor or other things nearby. When you use these mounts, your machines get quieter and steadier.
Rubber vibration dampening mounts have two main pieces. The first piece is the rubber part. It soaks up energy and cuts down on shaking. The second piece is usually metal, like a washer or bolt. This metal part helps connect the mount to your machine. These mounts are often made from natural rubber, silicone rubber, or nitrile rubber. Each kind of rubber is good for different things. For example, natural rubber is very strong. Silicone rubber works well when it gets hot.
Tip: You can use rubber vibration dampening mounts in many places. They are used in factories, cars, and electronics. These mounts help protect machines and make work areas nicer.
Types of Rubber Vibration Mounts
There are different kinds of rubber vibration dampening mounts. Each kind is best for certain jobs. Here are some common types:
Cylindrical mounts: These are shaped like small tubes. They are good for basic vibration control.
Cone mounts: These look like cones. They are strong and can handle heavy weight and big shocks.
Sandwich mounts: These have layers of rubber and metal. They are great for big machines.
Bush mounts: These fit inside holes. They help with twisting and bending.
The type of rubber you choose is important too. Here is a table to compare different rubber types:
Rubber Type | Elasticity | Heat Resistance | Oil Resistance | Chemical Resistance |
|---|---|---|---|---|
Natural Rubber | Excellent | Poor | Poor | Poor |
Nitrile Rubber | Good | Fair | Excellent | Good |
Silicone Rubber | Excellent | Excellent | Fair | Excellent |
Fluorocarbon Rubber | Good | Excellent | Excellent | Excellent |
When you pick rubber vibration dampening mounts, think about the kind of shaking, how much weight, and where you will use them. This helps you choose the best mounts for your machines.
How Anti-Vibration Mounts Work
Vibration Isolation
Anti-vibration mounts help stop vibrations from spreading. They sit between the machine and the base. When the machine is on, it shakes. The mounts soak up these shakes and keep them from reaching the floor or other things. This is called vibration isolation.
These mounts use mass, spring, and damping parts. The rubber works like a spring and a damper. It changes how the shakes move through the machine. The system’s natural frequency depends on the weight and rubber stiffness. If you set up the mounts right, they block most shakes, especially those above the natural frequency. This makes the area quieter and cuts down on noise.
Passive isolation systems use mass, spring, and damping to lower vibration transfer.
The setup’s natural frequency changes how much vibration gets through.
Damping in the rubber lowers vibration at the natural frequency.
Less vibration gets through at higher frequencies.
Note: To get the best results, install the mounts the right way. Make sure they fit your machine’s weight and the type of vibration.
Energy Absorption and Dissipation
Anti-vibration mounts do more than just block shakes. They also soak up and get rid of the energy from these shakes. When the machine moves, the rubber bends and stretches. This turns the shake energy into heat. The heat leaves the mount, so less vibration stays in the machine.
Rubber with high hysteresis is best for this job. This kind of rubber can soak up lots of energy. It does not wear out fast, even if the machine runs a long time. Natural rubber is a good pick because it can handle stress and go back to its shape. This helps the mounts last longer and work better.
Rubber soaks up vibration energy and turns it into heat.
Flexible mounts let the machine move a bit, which lowers direct vibration transfer.
Damping methods, like special rubber, help stop shakes fast.
Shock Absorption
Sometimes, machines get hit by sudden shocks. Anti-vibration mounts help protect them from these hits. The rubber acts like a cushion. When a shock happens, the rubber squishes and spreads out the force. This keeps the machine safe and lowers the chance of damage.
These mounts also help with slow, low-frequency shakes. Some have special designs, like a hole in the rubber, to let them move more. This makes them better at handling big shocks and slow shakes. You can use these mounts in many places, like big machines, HVAC systems, and electronics.
Tip: Always spread the weight evenly on the mount. If you use brackets, they should be much stiffer than the mounts. Good setup helps the mounts work their best.

Choosing the Right Anti-Vibration Mounts
Picking the right anti-vibration mounts helps your machines work better. It also makes them quieter and keeps them safe. You should think about a few things before you choose. YNF Rubber has many anti-vibration mounts for different machines and places.
Material Selection
Always check what the anti-vibration mounts are made of. The right material helps stop vibration and makes your equipment last longer. Rubber is a good choice because it soaks up shakes and handles bumps well. Some materials work better in hot or oily spots. Others can handle chemicals or last longer in tough places.
Factor | Explanation |
|---|---|
Load Weight | How much weight the mounts hold. This affects the type and number you need. |
Vibration Dampening | How well the mounts soak up shakes. This is important for how the machine works. |
Working Environment | The mounts must handle oils, chemicals, and other things around them. |
Temperature Tolerance | The mounts must work in hot or cold places. This keeps them working right. |
Elasticity and compressibility help the mounts soak up shocks.
Strong mounts last longer in rough places.
Good damping means less shaking.
Mounts that resist oil, chemicals, ozone, heat, or cold stay strong.
Tip: YNF Rubber makes anti-vibration mounts from materials that fit many machines and work places.
Load and Size
You need to match the mount’s load limit to your machine. The load limit tells you the size, type, and number of mounts to use. If your machine weighs 800 kg and you use four mounts, each one should hold 200 kg. This keeps your machine steady and stops extra shaking.
Different mounts have their own ways to soak up shakes and bumps. Bigger mounts can handle harder hits, but they must fit your machine. Always check the weight and size before picking a mount.
Decide if you want more comfort or less noise.
Make sure the mount fits your machine.
Check your machine’s weight and spread it out evenly.
More deflection means better vibration control.
Environmental Factors
The place where you use the mounts changes how well they work. Weather, water, and chemicals can make rubber mounts weaker. You need mounts that can handle water and chemicals to keep your machines safe.
Weather changes can affect how mounts work.
Chemicals can make mounts less strong.
Pick mounts that fit your weather and work place.
