The Foundation of Smooth, Quiet, and Safe Machinery
Rubber Mounts
In industries where machinery vibration, noise, and instability threaten operational efficiency and safety, rubber mounts emerge as critical components for maintaining performance and longevity. At Blueline International, we engineer high-quality rubber mounts tailored to absorb shocks, isolate vibrations, and protect equipment across diverse sectors, from automotive to heavy manufacturing.
What Are Rubber Mounts?
Rubber mounts are elastomeric components designed to isolate vibrations, reduce noise, and stabilize machinery by absorbing kinetic energy. Made from durable materials like natural rubber, neoprene, or nitrile, these mounts act as a buffer between equipment and its base, minimizing wear and tear while enhancing operational precision.
Key Benefits of Blueline International’s Rubber Mounts
- Vibration Isolation: Reduce resonance in motors, pumps, and compressors to prevent structural fatigue.
- Noise Reduction: Dampen sound transmission in HVAC systems, generators, and industrial machinery.
- Shock Absorption: Protect sensitive equipment from sudden impacts or uneven loads.
- Corrosion Resistance: Withstand oils, chemicals, and extreme temperatures (-40°F to 250°F).
- Longevity: Engineered for heavy-duty use with high load-bearing capacity (up to 10,000 lbs).
Applications of Rubber Mounts
Blueline International’s rubber mounts are trusted in industries such as:
- Automotive: Engine mounts, transmission stabilizers, and exhaust system isolation.
- Manufacturing: Vibration control for CNC machines, presses, and conveyor systems.
- HVAC: Noise reduction in chillers, fans, and air handling units.
- Marine: Stabilize engines and generators on boats and offshore platforms.
- Renewable Energy: Isolate vibrations in wind turbines and solar panel mounts.

FAQs About Rubber Mounts
Q: How do rubber mounts differ from antivibration pads?
A: Mounts are designed for heavier loads and dynamic movement, while pads focus on static applications.
Q: Can rubber mounts handle outdoor environments?
A: Yes! Our UV-resistant EPDM and neoprene mounts excel in harsh weather.
Q: Are custom sizes available?
A: Absolutely. Share your requirements, and we’ll engineer mounts to fit.
