Insulated with rubber or synthetic, these bushings and mountings provide flexible solutions for a broad array of applications.

Rubberflex bushings and mountings will :

  • Reduce Vibration
  • Absorb Shock
  • Reduce Noise
  • Eliminate the Need for Lubrication
  • Reduce Maintenance

Rubberflex bushings and mountings are produced to your specifications at exceptionally low cost, even in small lots.  Their inner and outer sleeves are separated by an elastic wall that also holds them together with a strong mechanical bond.  The elastic takes up all the movement without permitting the bonding surfaces to move.

Choice of Materials 

Rubberflex bushings and mountings are made by two methods - "shot type" or vulcanized to the inner sleeve.  Thus they can be furnished in virtually any metal - brass, steel, stainless steel, bronze, copper or plated metal - as well as plastics.

Rubberflex bushings are available in two general types:

Torsional Bushings are used in oscillating movement applications. The thickness of the elastic wall governs deflection under load.  Rubberflex bushings can permit unusually high torsional angles.  When a torsional bushing is assembled on a shaft or similar solid member, the elastic insulator also serves as a gas, water, and fluid-tight joint.  Synthetics, instead of rubber, are recommended where oil is to be sealed.

Protective bushings isolate delicate bearings against sudden load, shock, the effects of misalignment and other potentially damaging forces.  This makes them ideally suited for use with many materials, notable bronze and porous bronze bearings.

Rubberflex cylindrical-type mountings are available for horizontal or vertical deflection, and they mount all types of machinery.  Their design eliminates the possibility of a mounted engine falling out of its bed without the need for special end or bumper plates.

Rubberflex bushings are made under the same general design and through the accumulation of tooling from prior years, there are many sizes we can offer which require only assembly - without the expense of special tooling.
