ELASTOMER ISOLATORS

For optimal acoustic damping and protection.

Socitec’s elastomer isolators, or elastomer mounts, are primarily designed for applications that depend on vibration isolation and acoustic damping. They offer noise filtration capabilities across a wide frequency range. This damping solution is primarily intended to protect against vibrations, but some models can also be used for shock absorption. Highly used in the naval sector, elastomer isolators are also suitable for other applications, such as transportation and military fields.

FAQ

What are the main performances of elastomer isolators?

Thanks to their excellent adaptability and characteristics, elastomer isolators are particularly appreciated for:

Their high deformation capacity, ensuring optimal omnidirectional isolation against shocks and vibrations.
Their range of use depending on the model, with a static load capacity per elastomer mount ranging from 30 kg to over one ton.
Their filtration cut-off performance, providing isolation capabilities that cover a resonance frequency down to 14 Hz.
Their resistance to temperatures ranging, at a minimum, from -30°C to +70°C.

What type of equipment are elastomer mounts suitable for?

Elastomer isolators are particularly effective in cases of solid-borne noise isolation generated by rotating machines, such as generators, pumps, motors, compressors, turbines, and fans.

Why choose elastomer isolators?

Elastomer mounts are damping solutions particularly suited for vibration isolation and acoustic damping issues, while wire rope isolators are more suitable for passive shock and vibration isolation needs, especially in more aggressive or challenging environments.

Is it possible to develop custom elastomer isolators?

Whatever the application, our engineers calculate the model and define the most suitable solution for your vibration issue. We take into account compression, traction in both flat and 45-degree positions, shear, and rolling. If we do not have the solutions that match your needs in-house, our partnerships allow us to provide solutions produced within the international range.
