Rubber Buffers and Polyurethane Buffers
A rubber buffer, or Purbuffer, is used to reduce and dampen all types of impacts and shocks from cranes, carts, doors, gates, and more.
Rubber buffers can also be used in vibration-isolated machinery as a limiting element to prevent excessive movement (e.g., when passing through resonance frequencies) or as a stop to block movements in unwanted directions. They can be freely mounted on either the fixed or moving part of the machinery.
Many of the rubber buffers are also available in stainless steel.
Mounting Rubber Buffers
If a single rubber buffer does not provide sufficient cushioning, two buffers can be mounted in series. If one rubber buffer cannot absorb the energy, two buffers can be mounted in parallel.
Cylindrical dampers, type SDD and SDE, can also be used as rubber buffers. Learn more about the use of type SDD and SDE, or contact us regarding your specific vibration damping project.
