Rectangular SAW
Widely used for suspending engines on road vehicles and may also be employed
as springs for vibratory equipment.
Rectangular SAW mounts are also known as “Sandwich” mountings because
they feature a rubber section sandwiched between plates of metal. This
arrangement allows a large difference between the compression and shear
stiffnesses, thus providing the potential to ‘tune’ a mounting system by
rotating the mountings. These mountings are commonly installed in a ‘Vee’
formation to utilise this feature.
Features
- Available with plate or stud fixings
-
Can be loaded in compression or shear, or a combination of both, for example
in a ‘Vee’ arrangement. -
Can be manufactured with or without interleaves to change the ratio of
shear to compression stiffness.
