VMC Group MB Series Elastomer Shock and Vibration Isolators are typically found in the sensitive electronic, communications equipment and weapons systems within transportable shelters, as well as within the structure itself where a failsafe design is required. At maximum rated load, the natural frequency range of 12 to 15 Hz offers excellent isolation of structure-borne noise.
The MB Series are also furnished as a complete assembly and feature a built-in leveling device for simple installation. The MB1 and MB3 housings are made of heat-treated cast aluminum, while the MB5 is manufactured from welded steel. All hardware consists of zinc-plated, carbon steel for superior strength and long-life.
The elastomeric element resists oils, ozone and most solvents - providing optimum resilience in even the harshest environments. The operating temperature of -20°F to +180°F offers continuous operation in ambient conditions.
