Buffers
Buffers are designed to protect structures and equipment from impact forces.
They are usually fitted as non-metallic stops or incorporated in vehicle
suspension systems to provide progressive stiffening under increasing load.
Typical applications
- Dump trucks
- Off-road vehicles
- Cranes
- Handling equipment
- Vehicle suspensions
Features
Circular and rectangular types are easily fitted. Reduction of transmitted
shock loads enables equipment to be designed more economically.
The rising stiffness properties enable vehicle suspension characteristics
to be optimised
