Buffer Flanges  Manufacturers, Traders, Suppliers

Compact elastomer springs made of Diepothan or Vulkollan are mainly used in general mechanical engineering as well as in vehicle construction. In the hardnesses 70, 80, 90 up to 96 Shore A various sizes are available as standard.
Special application areas can also be served with individually designed springs. Here, special contours and surfaces as well as adjustments to special environmental influences such as high humidity or microbe resistance can be realised.
Cellular elastomer springs made of the foamed material Vulkocell are mainly used in vehicle construction. As an emergency or additional spring, elastomer springs can be used reliably in the agricultural sector, but also in many other sectors. Due to their high volume compressibility and excellent spring properties, Vulkocell elastomer springs are also used in many other areas (e.g. general mechanical engineering, intralogistics, transport technology and many more).
A standard programme with different sizes and hardnesses is available at short notice. Designs for special applications can also be created and offered.

GMT supplies rubber and rubber to metal bonded elements to reduce and eliminate unwanted vibration and noise in all kinds of construction equipment. High-frequency loads require elastomer qualities specially adapted to this application.
These applications typically have very high levels of mechanically induced vibration and impact stresses which have to be isolated. The large product range of GMT mountings, which have been especially developed for this purpose, include
• elastomers for vibratory hammers
• buffers and rails for vibrating drum rollers and vibration compaction plates
• buffers for hand grip
• cab suspension elements
• engine bearings / aggregate bearings
• axle bearings
In areas like the steering mechanism bushes, springs and steering rods are mainly used to achieve the desired isolation. The use of maintenance free mountings with a long service life is the economic choice for such like applications. Our In-house compounding specialists have the expertise to support customers when selecting compounds used for these applications, which can be improved for good oil-, grease- and / or frost- behaviour and physical properties.
When used for the isolation of vibrating drum rollers and vibration compaction plates the heavy duty rubber mounts are subjected to both shear and compression loading. GMT elements provide isolation of the vibrating drum or plate, hence preventing fatigue and wear on moving parts. Great demands are made on the mountings which are exposed to high loads and extreme environmental conditions.
For the suspension of the vehicle cab we recommend the use of GMT cone mountings. The special design of these mountings provides for different stiffness in the three main axes. This offers a high comfort for the driver and at the same time a safe guidance of the cab is provided.
