Detailed Description & Specifications
SXBY Hourglass Rubber Vibration Isolator
Double-Stud Waisted Rubber Mount for Industrial Machinery
The SXBY Hourglass Rubber Vibration Isolator is a specially shaped elastomeric mounting component designed to reduce mechanical vibration transmission and provide resilient support for industrial equipment.
Also known as a Waisted Rubber Mount, Hourglass Rubber Mount, or Double Male Threaded Rubber Vibration Isolator, the SXBY series features a distinctive hourglass-shaped rubber body with a narrowed center and two externally threaded metal studs.
Manufactured by Shanghai Songxia Vibration Absorber Co., Ltd., the SXBY series offers an alternative to conventional cylindrical rubber mounts for compatible industrial machinery and OEM equipment installations.
Key Product Features
1. Distinctive Hourglass Rubber Design
The SXBY features a waisted rubber body with a narrower central section and wider ends.
This geometry differentiates the product from conventional cylindrical rubber isolators and influences its deformation and stiffness characteristics.
The actual load-bearing and vibration isolation performance should be determined from verified product data.
2. Double Male Threaded Connections
Externally threaded metal studs extend from both ends of the isolator.
These connections allow the rubber mount to be installed between compatible equipment components and supporting structures.
3. Elastomeric Vibration Damping
The rubber element provides elastic compliance and inherent damping through its viscoelastic behavior.
When correctly selected, the mount can help reduce vibration transmission and control mechanical oscillation.
4. Metal-Rubber Construction
The SXBY combines metal mounting interfaces with a shaped rubber isolation body.
The threaded studs provide mechanical connection points, while the rubber element provides resilient support.
5. Compact Machinery Mounting
The double-stud arrangement provides a practical mounting configuration for selected machinery assemblies requiring rubber isolation between connected components.
6. Customizable Rubber Mounts
Rubber hardness, overall dimensions, waist diameter, thread specifications, and material selection can be evaluated according to customer requirements.
How Does the SXBY Hourglass Rubber Vibration Isolator Work?
The SXBY introduces a compliant elastomeric connection between mechanical equipment and its supporting structure.
Under static loading, the rubber body undergoes elastic deformation and provides resilient support.
During equipment operation, dynamic forces cause the rubber to deform and recover, changing the vibration transmission characteristics of the connected system.
The hourglass geometry affects how the rubber deforms under different loading directions, including compression and shear.
The rubber material also provides inherent damping, helping dissipate vibration energy and control oscillatory motion.
Effective isolation requires appropriate selection of the supported load, rubber stiffness, damping characteristics, and excitation frequency.
The SXBY’s performance must be evaluated using verified static and dynamic stiffness data rather than its external shape alone.
Typical Applications
Electric Motor Mounting
Rubber isolation mounts for compatible electric motors and motor-driven equipment.
Industrial Pumps
Resilient mounting for selected pumping systems and auxiliary mechanical assemblies.
Ventilation Fans and Blowers
Anti-vibration rubber mounts for suitable fan and blower installations.
Air Compressors
Rubber mounting components for compatible compressor assemblies.
Industrial Machinery
Vibration isolation for selected machinery frames, equipment assemblies, and mechanical installations.
OEM Equipment Manufacturing
Customized hourglass rubber mounts for equipment manufacturers requiring specific mounting dimensions and elastomeric characteristics.
Benefits of Hourglass Rubber Vibration Isolators
When correctly selected and installed, the SXBY series can help:
- Reduce vibration transmission between connected mechanical components.
- Provide resilient equipment support.
- Control mechanical vibration through elastomeric damping.
- Offer a double-stud mounting configuration.
- Accommodate applications requiring a shaped rubber isolation element.
- Support customized industrial vibration control requirements.
Actual results depend on load conditions, operating frequency, mounting orientation, and verified product characteristics.
SXBY vs. SXCC Cylindrical Rubber Vibration Isolators
The SXBY and SXCC series both feature externally threaded studs on opposite ends.
Their principal visible difference is the shape of the rubber body.
SXBY Hourglass Rubber Mount
Features a waisted rubber body with a narrowed central section.
SXCC Cylindrical Rubber Mount
Features a straight cylindrical rubber body with a relatively uniform outside diameter.
These geometries can produce different stiffness and deformation characteristics. However, neither design should be considered universally superior without comparing load capacity, dynamic stiffness, and operating conditions.
How to Select the Right SXBY Rubber Mount
For accurate selection, customers should provide:
- Equipment type and model
- Total equipment operating weight
- Load per mounting point
- Number of required rubber isolators
- Operating speed and excitation frequency
- Required isolation performance
- Overall diameter and height
- Minimum waist diameter
- Upper and lower thread specifications
- Rubber hardness and material requirements
- Expected compression, shear, and tensile loading
- Operating temperature and environmental conditions
Our technical team can review these parameters and assist with selecting a suitable hourglass rubber vibration isolation solution.
