Silentblocks with collar

Rubber and metal anti-vibration bushings, also called silent blocks, are an excellent aid to isolate vibrations and eliminate noise

Anti-vibration bushings are rubber bushings contained between metal pipes and are used to isolate vibrations and eliminate noise.

Bushings with collar are able to bear high axial loads and can therefore be assembled opposite each other.

The vibration isolation function is performed by the rubber inserted between the two pipes. The compound used is very important; it is usually a natural-based vulcanised rubber (NR base rubber, but special compounds can be used based on specific requirements) .

In vulcanisation, the rubber undergoes a process that makes it perform better.

Our bushings are fully vulcanised: in addition to excellent vibration-damping performance, vulcanisation offers an extremely resistant rubber-metal bond, resulting in greater security on the applied load.

The inner bushing can move independently of the outer bushing in four ways: axial, radial, torsional and pendulum.
