MARINE engine mounts

03/21/2023

Rubber mounts are an essential component of marine engines, used to support and dampen the vibrations caused by the engine's operation. They are designed to absorb the engine's movement and prevent it from transmitting vibrations and noise to the boat's structure and passengers. Rubber mounts are widely used in marine engines because they offer excellent vibration isolation, are durable and resistant to corrosion, and are cost-effective. 

Zhongxiang Rubber supplies several different types of rubber mounts available for marine engines, including shear mounts, cylindrical mounts, and sandwich mounts. Shear mounts are typically used in smaller marine engines and consist of a rubber block that is bonded to a metal plate on both sides. Our special design and deep understanding to anti-vibration provide excellent shear resistance and are ideal for applications where the engine is subjected to high levels of lateral force. Cylindrical mounts, on the other hand, are used in larger marine engines and consist of a cylindrical rubber element that is bonded to a metal plate on one end. This design provides excellent isolation against vertical and horizontal vibrations. Sandwich mounts are a combination of shear and cylindrical mounts, and are used in applications where both types of vibration isolation are required.

One of the main advantages of Zhongxiang Ruber anti-vibration mounts is that they are very effective at isolating vibrations from the engine to the boat's structure. This is important because excessive vibration can cause damage to the boat's hull, deck, and other components, and can also make the ride uncomfortable for passengers. By isolating the engine's vibrations, rubber mounts help to ensure that the boat is more stable, smoother, and quieter.

Another advantage of rubber mounts is their durability and resistance to corrosion. Zhongxiang Rubber use all top quality material. Our marine engines are exposed to a harsh environment that includes saltwater, moisture, and other corrosive elements. They are typically made from materials that are resistant to corrosion, such as neoprene or natural rubber, and are designed to withstand the rigors of marine use.
