Sandwich Mount

The sandwich mounting, so called because of its layered construction, is a well proven established design that provides an economical method of isolating heavy industrial machinery. The steel fixing plates either side of the mounting are separated from each other by a rubber element bonded to a steel centre plate. This design gives the sandwich mounting a high load carrying in a small compact shape. This feature is particularly useful where the mountings are required to have a high load carrying capacity and at the same time a high degree of either horizontal or torsional flexibility. Typical applications include the mounting of diesel engines, machine tools, test beds, vibratory hoppers and conveyors, concrete block-making machines, large exhaust systems etc.
