AMC Mecanocaucho

The AMC-Mecanocaucho® TFS type anti vibration mounts are made of two symmetric moulded parts.

They are designed to work in traction or compression providing a similar stiffness.

When installed with metal washers they allow failsafe installations.

Technical characteristics

This anti vibration mount is designed to provide very similar tensile and compression stiffness values. This feature is particularly useful in those applications where vibration and transient forces come from various directions and constant stiffness is required in all of them.

Applications

The TFS anti vibration mounts are ideal to be used in mobile applications that are exposed to compressive and tensile forces, for example, on-board mounting of equipment on ships, cabins, railway or road transport.

Operation and Assembly

The TFS mounts must be installed according to the following installation instructions:

They can be installed in frames of different thicknesses according to the values of T, given in the table below. The load vs. deformation curves will vary depending on the thickness of the frame on which the mount is installed. This thickness "T" determines the degree of precompression of the mount.
For the correct installation of the mount, it is recommended to make a hole in the frame with diameter Q, given in the table below.
It is recommended to chamfer the hole so as not to damage the rubber.
The use of washers is recommended in the event that the support surface does not completely cover the rubber surface.
Respect the tightening torque of the mount.
In case of any doubt, contact the technical department.
