"John Evans' helical isolators are made of aircraft quality stainless steel cable, wound into metal retaining bars prepared for surface mounting. The wire rope (ranging in diameter from 1/16" to 1"+) and its helix configuration provide the specific resilience required to cushion fragile loads as small as a few pounds or substantial loads of many thousands of pounds, and absorb vibration through a wide frequency spectrum. The isolator is essentially insensitive to position: it operates well in any attitude; in compression, extension, shear and roll, and provides protection in all axes simultaneously."
Nice :)

I've just started looking into vibration isolators and vibration control. DO you know what they have to do with marine engine mount? And how I can really use them to my advantage? I want to be able to become the best in my field. I know that I can, but I do need the right equipment to do so.
ReplyDeleteThis is a great overview of vibration isolators, thank you for sharing this. It's great to get a general idea about these pieces and parts before using them in any upcoming or current projects. Awesome!
ReplyDeleteThis is great stuff. I need to get a vibration isolator. I am looking for more information about it so I know how to operate it better.
ReplyDeleteWhere can I buy some vibration isolators? I need to get some for my job and I don't know where to buy any?
