Fabreeka® Products For Military Applications

Introduction

Fabreeka® isolation products are used on a variety of military applications to attenuate shock and vibration and reduce structure-borne noise. The original, resilient Fabreeka® laminated fabric pad still sets the standard for conformance to the difficult range of specifications required by government agencies. Fabreeka® isolation materials are used on all types of ground support equipment vehicles from tanks to personnel carriers. Fabreeka® pad is also used to absorb shock in armaments including applications on the F-16 fighter plane and the new MRAP vehicle.

Fabreeka® Pad

Fabreeka® resilient laminated fabric pad is a scientifically designed and manufactured material composed of layers of tightly twisted, closely woven lightweight duck. Each layer is impregnated with an elastomeric com-pound containing mold and mildew inhibiting agents.

The properties of the Fabreeka® pad are exceptionally suited for the reduction of impact shock, vibration and structure-borne noise. Avoid metal-to-metal contact in mount attachments by including Fabreeka® bushings and washers. Thicker sections can be supplied by bonding standard thicknesses together, and the pads can be custom fabricated to any shape or size.

Some features and benefits of Fabreeka® pads:

• Meet or exceed the MIL-C-882 and MIL-E-5272 mili-tary specifications

• Exhibit relatively high damping (C/Cc - .14)

• Creep effects are reduced to a limit of 5% of original thickness

• Operating temperature limits are -65°F (-55°C) to

200°F (95°C)

• Unusually high compressive strength up to 12,000 psi

• Impervious to most oils and solvents

• Resist effects of steam, water, mildew and brine

• Have very high energy storage per unit volume, which make them ideal for shock isolation

Typical applications include ground support vehicles such as tanks and personnel carriers. Isolation washers and bushings are also ideal products to combat vibra-tion in these applications.

Washers and Bushings

Fabreeka® bushings and isolation washers are used to eliminate metal-to-metal contact and break the vibra-tion or shock transmission path. For example, the contact between a machine base and an anchor bolt. The properties of the Fabreeka® bushing material are ideally suited for vibration isolation and structure-borne noise reduction.

Washers and bushings are typically used in conjunction with Fabreeka®, Fabcel® and DIMFAB materials where the reduction of impact shock or isolation of transmitted vibration is required. Bushings are manufactured with the same properties as Fabreeka® pad, and therefore offer years of service under the most severe operat-ing conditions.

Some features and benefits of washers and bushings:

• Fabreeka® bushing material meets the MIL-C-882 and MIL-E-5272 military specifications.

• Bushings and washers complete the isolation solu-tion by eliminating the vibration and shock trans-mission path.

• Isolation washers made from Fabreeka® pad mate-rial can ultimately withstand loads up to 12,000 psi when used for "uplift" or rebound shock.

• Bushings and isolation washers are impervious to most oils and are resistant to the effects of steam, water, mildew and brine. The effective tempera-ture range is -65°F (-55°C) to 200°F (95°C).

• Custom OD/ID and bushing wall thickness and length are available.

DIMFAB 280 Pads

DIMFAB 280 is a low durometer elastomeric compound that meets the specification requirements for Distributed Isolation Material (DIM) MIL-D-24709, is specified for use in US Navy submarines and surface ships and is a proven solution where structure-borne noise, shock or vibration is a problem. These mounting pads are specifically designed to perform successfully in applications where DIM mounts are required. A major fea-ture of these pads is that they can be readily cut to any desired shape or size for easy installation in a wide variety of applications. Additionally, DIMFAB pads meet or exceed Naval specifications regarding environmen-tal requirements including salt spray, temperature storage, oil immersion, ozone, etc.

Some features and benefits of DIMFAB pads:

• Reduce structure-borne noise

• Reduce vibration

• Cushion shock

• Exhibit minimal creep

• Impervious to most oils and solvents

• Custom fabricated to any shape or size

Typical isolated equipment on vessels includes propul-sion systems, communications equipment, electrical and hydraulic equipment and reciprocating machinery.

Tech Products, a subsidiary of Fabreeka® International, is a manufacturer of vibration and shock isolation mounts. Products include isolators for engines, generators, pumps, compressors, radiators and electronics. All types of elastomers are available including Neoprene, Silicone, Butyl, Nitrile and Natural Rubber.

Full engineering analysis is available for all vibration, shock and noise control applications. Services include product testing, vibration testing and six degree of freedom mounting analysis.

Vibration Isolators Elastomeric isolators are used to protect equipment and personnel from harmful vibration. Typical sources of vibration include engines, pumps, compressors and other rotating equipment. Vibration isolators absorb the energy produced by such equipment. Products are available to support loads from 0.5 lbs up to 5000+ lbs.

per mounting point. Tech Products' engineers can provide analysis and recommendations for any vibration problem.

Shock Mounts Resilient shock mounts are used to protect equipment from harmful shock pulses. Typically shock mounts are used to isolate pulses created by transit drops, gunfire, ballistic and crash inputs. High damped elastomeric materials are used to dissipate the energy created by the pulses. Mounts are available to support both lightweight and heavy duty equipment.

Resilient Mounts Resilient mounts are used for isolation of shock and vibration. Mobile applications encounter a wide variety of shock and vibration inputs and the isolation mounts are used to absorb the energy and protect equipment. Mounts are available in a variety of elastomers for equipment ranging from 0.5 lbs to 5000 lbs.

Engine Mounts Tech Products isolation products are also used for mounting gas and diesel engines in any application. The engine mounts provide vibration isolation for the equipment components and operators. Properly sized mounts can increase the life of a product and improve comfort of personnel.
