Squaregrip (SG)

Why choose Farrat Squaregrip SG?

• High stiffness vibration and shock damping
• Produced from high grade fibre reinforced nitrile rubber
• Excellent oil and chemical resistance properties
• Used extensively in Farrat machine mounts
• Use in high pressure applications where Isomat and BR pads do not have sufficient capacity
• Micro-damping of industrial machinery

Considerations

In lower pressure applications it may be necessary to consider alternative materials such as Farrat Nitrile NBR. Farrat are happy to advise and provide technical calculations to specify the most appropriate material.

Where bolt through connections are required, Farrat Anti-vibration (AW) Washers and Bushes should be incorporated in order to allow free movement of the pad and to ensure that the bolt does not transmit vibration across the connection.

Anti Vibration pads and materials can sometimes be referred to as; anti-vibration, vibration absorption materials, elastomer, resilient material, isolation pads, vibration rubber, isolation rubber, damping material.

• Impact machinery (e.g. Power Press Elastomer Bearings for mechanical and hydraulic presses, turret punch presses, guillotines, etc.)
• General use for industrial machinery and hydraulic equipment
• Metal, timber and concrete production machinery
• Printing & packaging machinery
• Textile machinery

• Measuring, test and electronic equipment
• Mining equipment
• High-speed industrial doors
• Components, modules and systems in elevator industry
• Damping pads on Farrat Wedgemounts & Farrat Jackmounts

Note: these applications are a guide based on typical examples that we see regularly. The ideal material will depend on the specific characteristics and constraints of your application.
